LG Refrigerator Water Filter

What to Look for When Shopping for Your LG Fridge Filter

When shopping for an LG Refrigerator Water Filter, you want to be sure that you take a few things into consideration.


Different water filters filter out different types of contaniments, so you need to be sure you purchase the filter that's right for you.

Much will depend on where you live. There are vast differences from the types of tap water contaniments that someone in New York might face versus someone in say, Seattle, Washington.


Making Sure You Buy The LG Refrigerator Water Filter That's Right For You

Because of the variances in tap water impurities, you want to be sure you not only protect your family against whatever might be affecting your drinking water, but you want to protect the components of your refrigerator as well.

Refrigerators depend upon clean water to run properly. So, it's more than just insuring that you have great tasting water and ice, you want to be sure you minimize any potential sediment or rust that could come in through the water line.

So, to make sure you make the best choice when purchasing your LG Refrigerator Water Filter, read through the following tips:



  1. What Contaniments Are You Protecting Your Family Against?

    LG Refrigerator water filters have a wide variety of impurities that they remove.

    You need to find out what the percentages of particulates are affecting your tap water before making your purchase. This can be done usually by contacting your local municipal water supplier and asking them for an nformation sheet on your tap water contaniments.

    They either e-mail you or send you a list of contaniments listed in percentages (and as parts per million). Find out which are the top five most significant, and then find out which refrigerator water filter will best protect you against such impurities.




  2. Price:

    LG water filters are some of the most effective on the market. However, because of their high quality components, they can also be quite expensive.

    Be sure to shop around on the net because the prices can vary by a great deal.





  3. Capacity:

    Most refrigerator water filters will be able to filter anywhere between 500 and 750 gallons of water over their life span.

    But the following items can negatively affect that number:

    • The size of your family -- Most families of four will utilize approximately 750 gallons of water over the course of six months. If your family is larger or smaller, this might affect this life span negatively or positively.

      Keep in mind that for the best results, even if you're only one person, it's good to replace your LG Refrigerator Water Filter about once every 6-7 months.

    • Where you live -- People who live in Seattle, Washington will have to deal with a different set of contaniments as those living in Washington, D.C.

      Depending on the amount of contaniments your refrigerator water filter has to filter out will affect the life span of your filter.

    • Water Pressure -- High water pressure is usually a bit harder on a water filter. So, if the pressure of water going to your refrigerator can be kept in check, your water filter will last a bit longer.


Just Remember...


The LG Refrigerator Water Filters are made to exact specifications and are made to deliver high quality water and ice for an extended period of time. Be sure to take into account the tips listed above, and you will find one at the best price and one that will last as long as possible.
