Maytag Fridge Filter - UKF8001 / W10790818 - 2PK
Maytag Fridge Filter - UKF8001 / W10790818 - 2 Pack
Maytag recently replaced the Puriclean II UKF8001AXX with the Maytag PUR UKF8001. This is the genuine Maytag filter that replaces the Puriclean II filters. You may notice that some of the UKF8001 filters do not have any writing on the actual filters, as Maytag has made sure that the new and old part numbers are on the filter's box and label. The UKF8001 fridge filter will suit some models of Maytag, Jenn-Air and Amana fridges. The appropriate fridge models all have a long, narrow filter that sits horizontally in a casing, which swings down from the ceiling of the fridge.

How long should my Maytag Fridge Filter last?
Refrigerator manufacturers strongly recommend that fridge water filters be replaced every 6 months or when the "change filter" light comes on. However, if you notice the clarity or taste of your water changing, that's the best indication that it's time for a new filter! This ensures that your water remains fresh and your refrigerator's ice & water mechanisms are protected from corrosion.
Useful Tips for installation and re-setting the fridge after changeover:
Installing your new water filter:
- Unlatch the plastic filter cover, and let it swing down (so you can see the filter)
- Twist the old filter a quarter-turn counterclockwise
- Pull the filter straight out and discard (The water will shut off automatically)
- Push the new filter into the fridge until it stops
- Twist the filter a quarter-turn clockwise
- Swing the plastic filter cover up until it snaps closed
- Reset your "change filter" light (if your fridge has one)
Resetting your "change filter" light:
Press and hold the dispenser lock and auto light buttons on the dispenser (at the same time) for 4 seconds until the filter status indicator begins to flash, then release the buttons.
