In addition, why is it so important to replace the refrigerator water filter?
The most commonly used filter medium in refrigerator water filters is activated carbon. After activated carbon is treated with oxygen, it opens millions of tiny, highly absorbent pores that can trap tiny microorganisms, odors, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the water. Over time, the activated carbon filter will lose its ability to remove contaminants. This can cause bacteria to multiply in your filter and make you and your family very sick.
An easy way to determine if you need to replace the refrigerator filter is to see if the taste has changed, or if your water or ice is starting to smell. You may also notice changes in water pressure.
