Sub-Zero 7012333 UC-15 Ice Maker Water Filter Replacement 

Cloudy ice, off-tasting ice, or a UC-15 that has gone longer than 6 months without a filter change -- these are all signs the Sub-Zero 7012333 UC-15 ice maker water filter is due for replacement. The 7012333 is the dedicated water filter for the Sub-Zero UC-15 undercounter ice maker, filtering water before it enters the ice-making system to produce clear, clean, great-tasting ice. Sub-Zero recently updated the part number from 7012333 to 7042803 -- this is the same filter in updated packaging. One critical point before ordering: this filter is for the Sub-Zero UC-15 ice maker only. It will not fit any Sub-Zero full-size refrigerator. The Sub-Zero 4204490 is the correct filter for full-size Sub-Zero refrigerators.

Why Buy the Sub-Zero 7012333 UC-15 Ice Maker Water Filter

• Reduces chlorine taste and odor, sediment, lead, and scale formation through activated carbon block filtration, protecting both ice quality and internal UC-15 components
• Inhibits scale formation inside the UC-15 ice maker system -- scale buildup is one of the most common causes of reduced ice maker efficiency and early component failure
• NSF certified filtration with independently verified performance for contaminant reduction
• Updated to 7042803 -- Sub-Zero's current part number for the same filter. Both 7012333 and 7042803 are in stock at purefridgewater.com at the best price with free USA shipping

Sub-Zero 7012333 vs 7042803 UC-15 Ice Maker Filter

Are the 7012333 and 7042803 the same filter?

Yes. Sub-Zero changed the item number from 7012333 to 7042803 -- it is the same filter in new packaging. Both part numbers confirm the same UC-15 ice maker filter. If the current filter label shows either number, ordering the 7012333 or 7042803 delivers the same replacement.

How to check the current filter part number?

Open the UC-15 ice maker and locate the filter housing. The part number -- 7012333 or 7042803 -- is printed on the current filter cartridge. If the label has worn off, check the model number label inside the ice maker compartment or door frame and cross-reference against the compatible models list above.

What happens if the wrong filter is ordered?

Ordering a Sub-Zero refrigerator filter such as the 4204490 for the UC-15 ice maker results in a filter that will not fit the housing. Refrigerator filters and ice maker filters use entirely different housing designs and connection types that are not interchangeable under any circumstances.

How Often Should the Sub-Zero 7012333 Be Replaced

Replace the Sub-Zero 7012333 UC-15 ice maker water filter every 6 months or 300 gallons, whichever comes first. Regular replacement has a significant impact on the life and efficiency of the UC-15 ice maker. Households with higher daily ice production may reach the 300 gallon limit before the 6 month mark and should replace sooner. Signs replacement is overdue: ice appears cloudy or smaller than usual, ice carries an off taste or faint chlorine smell, or ice production has slowed noticeably.

How to Install the Sub-Zero 7012333 Water Filter

1. Locate the filter housing inside the Sub-Zero UC-15 undercounter ice maker
2. Turn the old 7012333 filter counterclockwise to release it from the housing
3. Pull the old filter straight down and discard
4. Align the new filter with the housing and insert firmly
5. Turn clockwise until it locks securely into place
6. Run water through the system for 2 to 3 minutes before the first ice cycle to flush the new filter
