The Direct Answer to Your Search
ADQ74793501 = LT1000P. They are exactly the same filter.
ADQ74793501 is the engineering part number printed on the filter label. LT1000P is the consumer retail name on the box. Same filter, same specifications, same NSF certifications, same 200-gallon / 6-month rated life. An NSF-certified compatible filter listing either number fits your refrigerator.

ADQ74793501 vs LT1000P — Complete Equivalence Proof

LG uses two parallel naming systems for every water filter it produces. The ADQ number (e.g. ADQ74793501) is the internal engineering part number — this is what appears on the filter label itself, on service documentation, and in LG’s parts database. The LT number (e.g. LT1000P) is the consumer-facing retail name printed on the box that goes on store shelves.

They are the same physical product. The ADQ number does not change between production runs. The LT number was introduced to make the consumer experience simpler. When your filter label shows ADQ74793501, you need an LT1000P. When you search for “LT1000P compatible,” any listed compatible filter also fits ADQ74793501.

Predecessor (2014–2018) ADQ36006101 / ADQ36006102 = LT700P NOT interchangeable

🚨 ADQ74793501 is NOT Interchangeable with ADQ36006101/ADQ36006102

The ADQ36006101/ADQ36006102 (LT700P) is the previous generation of LG filter used in 2014–2018 fridges. They look very similar, have the same form factor, but different thread dimensions — they will not lock correctly in each other’s housing. If your label shows ADQ36006101 or ADQ36006102, you need the LT700P, not the LT1000P. Detailed guide: LG LT700P / ADQ36006102 Complete Guide.

ADQ74793501 Cost-Per-Gallon Analysis

At 200 gallons rated capacity, the true cost metric for water quality is cost-per-gallon — not cost-per-filter:

Filter OptionPriceRated GallonsCost Per GallonAnnual Cost (4 filters)
LG OEM LT1000P$44.99200$0.22~$90
SwapMyFilter Compatible$19.95200$0.10~$40
Bottled water (avg)~$1.00/gallon$1.00~$365+

At $0.10 per gallon, NSF-certified compatible filtered water from your LG refrigerator is the lowest-cost certified-quality drinking water option available. According to EPA WaterSense data, the average American uses approximately 80–100 gallons of water per day for all household purposes — making the per-gallon cost of any drinking water solution a meaningful long-term budget consideration.

Complete LG Filter Maintenance — Don’t Forget the Fresh Air Filter

While you are replacing the ADQ74793501 / LT1000P water filter, it is worth checking whether your LG refrigerator also uses an LG Fresh Air Filter (LT120F or ADQ73334008) — a small odour and bacteria filter installed in the upper interior of the refrigerator compartment, separate from the water filter. Many LG French door models (LRMVS, LRFXS, and others) include this secondary filter, which LG recommends replacing every 6 months in parallel with the water filter.

The Fresh Air Filter is a different product entirely — it filters airborne odours inside the fridge, not drinking water — but replacing both on the same schedule means only one maintenance event every 6 months rather than two. Look for a small rectangular or oval filter housing on the rear wall or ceiling of the refrigerator compartment. If your LG has one, the filter indicator panel typically shows a separate “Fresh Air” or “Air Filter” indicator that turns red when replacement is due.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ADQ74793501 the same as LT1000P? +
Yes — ADQ74793501 and LT1000P are two names for the same LG refrigerator water filter. ADQ74793501 is the engineering part number that appears on the filter label itself. LT1000P is the retail consumer name printed on the packaging box. They are identical in every specification — same dimensions, same O-ring profile, same NSF certifications, same 200-gallon rated capacity. When ordering a compatible filter, searching either number will find the correct product.
Can I use ADQ74793501 in my LG fridge if it originally came with ADQ36006101? +
No — the ADQ74793501 (LT1000P) and ADQ36006101/ADQ36006102 (LT700P) are different filter generations with different thread patterns and different dimensions. They are not interchangeable. If your refrigerator was manufactured before 2018 and the installed filter shows ADQ36006101 or ADQ36006102, you need the LT700P compatible — not the LT1000P. Attempting to install the wrong generation will result in a filter that won’t lock or will leak. Guide: LG LT700P Complete Guide.
How do I know if my LG uses ADQ74793501 or a different ADQ number? +
Open your refrigerator and look at the label on your currently installed filter. The ADQ number is printed directly on the filter body. ADQ74793501 means LT1000P (2018+ refrigerators). ADQ36006101 or ADQ36006102 means LT700P (2014–2018). ADQ73613401 means LT800P (select older models). If the label is unreadable, enter your full refrigerator model number at our Filter Compatibility Checker.
Do NSF-certified compatible ADQ74793501 filters perform as well as LG OEM? +
Yes — NSF/ANSI 42 and 53 certified compatible filters for ADQ74793501/LT1000P are independently tested to the same standard as LG OEM. The certification requires greater than 99% lead reduction and greater than 99.95% cyst reduction — identical for both OEM and certified compatible. The OEM label adds no performance advantage. Verify any filter’s certification at info.nsf.org/Certified/DWTU/. Full analysis: OEM vs Compatible Refrigerator Water Filters.
