The water filter housing, sometimes referred to as the water filter enclosure, plays a crucial role in your refrigerator's water filtration system. It is typically positioned near the water supply line and is designed to securely hold the water filter cartridge, ensuring all the water passing through it is adequately filtered.

Constructed with materials resistant to microbial growth and corrosion, the housing helps maintain the quality of your filtered water. However, a cracked or leaking filter housing can compromise this quality and may lead to water leakage inside or at the base of your refrigerator.

Symptoms that this part may need replacement include visible cracks in the housing, water leakage from the housing, or a drop in the quality of the filtered water.

Before purchasing, please verify your device's model number for compatibility with the Whirlpool Refrigerator Water Filter Housing (W10844267) to ensure the correct fit and functionality.
