Water System
Pure Source Water Filters
For models with a Front Filter (See Figure 5-3) . The
water filter must be changed at a minimum of twice a
year. But, under certain water conditions, such as large
concentrations of calcium, alkali, or other particulate
matter in the water, a filter may require changing more
frequently. A good way to judge whether the filter needs
to be replaced is when the water flow to the dispenser
starts slowing down and there has been no change
to the water pressure to the product. Operating water
pressure should be a minimum of 30 psi to a maximin of
100 psi.
Water Tank
The french door bottom freezer refrigerators will have a
roll tube tank assembly behind the watr filter. The water
line from the primary water valve (single coil valve) goes
behind the housing that makes up the left support for the
Perfect Temp Drawer. This housing is located on the
bottom left side of the food compartment liner and
contains the water filter (See Figure 5-3). The water
from the water filter goes to the water tank, then to the
secondary water valve (two coil valve). The two coil
valve dispenses water to the ice maker and to the
dispenser in the door. By filling the ice maker from the
water tank, you will get chilled water to the ice maker
helping to increase ice production. See next page for
water system flow diagrams.
The condition of the water filter also has a large
affect on the operation of the ice maker. When the
filter slows down flow to the door, it is also slowing
down flow the ice maker. This can reduce the
number of ice cubes made per cycle as well as
producing small cubes.
