Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra Water Filter Replacement

If the water filter indicator is on or the last replacement was more than 6 months ago, theΒ Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra water filter is due for a swap. The ULTRAWF is the water filter for select Frigidaire Gallery, Frigidaire Professional, and compatible Electrolux French door and side-by-side refrigerators using the PureSource Ultra filtration system. NSF 42, 53, and 401 certified and WQA certified for sustainability, the ULTRAWF reduces up to 99% of contaminants, cuts back on plastic, and saves the cost of bottled water. One critical point before ordering: the ULTRAWF and the EPTWFU01 PureSource Ultra II are separate filters for different Frigidaire refrigerator generations and are not interchangeable. Confirm the current filter label shows ULTRAWF before ordering. Order the Frigidaire ULTRAWF replacement today at refrigeratorfilters.shop for fast USA shipping and confirmed Frigidaire compatibility.

Are the ULTRAWF and EPTWFU01 the same filter?

No. The ULTRAWF and EPTWFU01 are separate filters for different Frigidaire filtration system generations. Both sit in the upper right area of the refrigerator, which is the most common source of confusion. The installation mechanism confirms which one the refrigerator uses -- push-and-click for the ULTRAWF, push-and-twist with a horizontal grip for the EPTWFU01. Always verify the refrigerator model number against the ULTRAWF compatibility list before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.

How to check the current filter part number:

Open the refrigerator and locate the filter housing in the upper right rear of the fresh food compartment. The part number -- ULTRAWF, EPTWFU01, FPPWFU01, or another code -- is printed directly on the current filter. If the label has worn off, check the refrigerator model number on the door sticker and cross-reference against the compatible models list above.

What happens if the wrong filter is ordered?

An incorrectly ordered filter will not seat correctly in the ULTRAWF housing. In some cases it may appear to fit but will not lock, resulting in poor water flow or minor leaking at the connection. Never attempt to force a filter into a housing that is not designed for it -- improper sealing can result in leaks or contamination.

How Often Should the Frigidaire ULTRAWF Be Replaced

Replace the Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra water filter every 6 months or 200 gallons, whichever comes first. Households with heavy water and ice usage, or those with poor incoming water quality, may need to replace it sooner. Replacing the ULTRAWF on schedule maintains proper flow rate, ensures contaminant reduction performance, and prevents bacterial buildup inside the filter media. Signs replacement is overdue: water develops a chlorine taste, dispenser flow slows, ice comes out cloudy, or the filter indicator light activates on the control panel.

How to Install the Frigidaire ULTRAWF Water Filter

  1. Locate the filter housing in the upper right rear of the fresh food compartment
  2. Push to release the old ULTRAWF filter and discard
  3. Push the new filter straight into the housing until it clicks to lock into place
  4. Run water through the dispenser for approximately 3 minutes, or 1.5 gallons, to prime the filter before use. Discard the water
  5. Reset the filter indicator light by pressing and holding the Water Filter button on the dispenser control for 3 seconds until the display changes from red to green

No tools required. The entire swap takes under two minutes.

FAQs

Where to buy Frigidaire ULTRAWF at the best price?

The Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra water filter is available at refrigeratorfilters.shop at a competitive price with free USA shipping on most orders. A two-pack covering a full year of replacements is available at a lower price per filter than ordering single packs.

Is the Frigidaire ULTRAWF the same as the EPTWFU01?

No. The ULTRAWF and EPTWFU01 are separate filters for different Frigidaire filtration system generations. The ULTRAWF uses a push-and-click installation. The EPTWFU01 uses a push-and-twist installation with a horizontal grip orientation. They are not interchangeable. Check the part number on the current filter before ordering.

Is the Frigidaire ULTRAWF in stock and ready to ship?

Yes. The Frigidaire ULTRAWF replacement is in stock at refrigeratorfilters.shop and ships within one business day. Standard delivery runs 3 to 5 business days across the USA.

Can the ULTRAWF replace the WF3CB filter?

The ULTRAWF can be used as an upgraded filter option in refrigerators requiring the WF3CB. This upgrade is model-specific. Confirm the specific refrigerator model supports the upgrade before ordering the ULTRAWF as a WF3CB replacement.

Does the ULTRAWF reduce lead and cysts?

Yes. The ULTRAWF reduces chlorine taste and odor, particulates Class I, cysts, lead, mercury, pesticides, insecticides, BPA, asbestos, and more through NSF 42, 53, and 401 certified activated carbon block filtration. Results may vary depending on local water supply conditions.

What is the difference between the ULTRAWF and PAULTRA combo and ordering them separately?

The Frigidaire ULTRAWF and PAULTRA combo pack covers both the ULTRAWF water filter and the PAULTRA PureAir Ultra air filter in a single order at a lower combined price than buying each separately. For households replacing both filters on the same 6 month schedule, the combo pack is the better value option available at refrigeratorfilters.shop.
