Part of caring for your family is making sure your recipes and their cups have clean, fresh-tasting water. Most refrigerator water dispensers make it easy to access clean water that's been through a triple filtration process.
The filtration process explained
Refrigerator filters force water through three stages that trap dangerous contaminants, pollutants and particles found in many city water sources.

Particle-Filtration
Help block larger contaminants like sand and silt.

Micro-Filtration
Help capture medium-sized contaminants like sugars and cysts.

Adsorption-Filtration
Help adsorb microscopic contaminants like atoms, ions or molecules from a gas.
How well do refrigerator water filters work?
Whirlpool® brand refrigerators work with everydrop® water filters that use activated carbon from coconut shells to reduce up to 73 contaminants and capture 99.9% of lead1. Activated carbon functions like a contaminant magnet, trapping lead, pesticides and pharmaceuticals. The coconut shell design even helps remove contaminants that affect taste, like chlorine and iron.
Care Tip: Replace your filter every 6 months and only consider filters certified by NSF International*.
*NSF International is an accredited, independent third-party certification body that tests and certifies products to verify they meet these public health and safety standards.
