How to Install the Whirlpool W10295370A — Step by Step

Installing Whirlpool W10295370A water filter in Whirlpool refrigerator upper interior - Whirlpool W10295370A filter
1

Locate the Filter

Open the refrigerator. Look in the upper left or upper right interior corner of the fridge compartment for a cylindrical housing. On most Whirlpool French Door models, it is in the upper right.

2

Turn Off the Ice Maker

Lift the ice maker arm to the off position inside the freezer.

3

Remove the Old Filter

Grip the filter body. Rotate counterclockwise approximately a quarter-turn until it releases. Pull straight out. Have a towel ready for a small drip.

💡 If stuck, wrap with a rubber band for grip. Apply steady counterclockwise pressure — never jerk.
4

Remove the O-Ring Cap

Unpack the new W10295370A. Remove the protective plastic cap from the O-ring end before inserting. Leaving this cap on is the most common installation mistake and causes leaks.

5

Insert and Lock

Align the filter notch with the housing guide. Push in firmly and rotate clockwise approximately a quarter-turn until firmly locked. The filter should sit flush with no wobble.

6

Flush 2–3 Gallons

Run the dispenser for 4–6 minutes, discarding the water. Expect grey or cloudy water initially — harmless carbon particles. Continue until water runs completely clear.

7

Reset the Whirlpool Filter Light

Press and hold the “Filter Reset” or “Water Filter” button for 3 seconds until the indicator light changes to blue/green or turns off. On older models without a dedicated button: hold “Light” and “Lock” simultaneously for 3 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

+
Yes. W10295370A is the engineering part number used in refrigerator service documentation. EDR3RXD1 is the retail product designation under Whirlpool’s EveryDrop brand. The consumer packaging shows it as “EveryDrop Filter 3.” All three names refer to the identical physical filter and fit the same refrigerators.
+
Yes — Maytag and KitchenAid are part of the Whirlpool brand family and share the same filter platform. The W10295370A fits most current Maytag French Door models (MFI, MFT, MFF series) and most KitchenAid French Door models (KRFC, KRMF series). Always verify your specific model number at our Filter Compatibility Checker.
+
Hold the filter reset button for the full 3 seconds — a quick press will not work. The button label varies by Whirlpool model: “Filter Reset,” “Water Filter,” or on older models hold “Light” + “Lock” together for 3 seconds. For the complete Whirlpool reset guide: How to Reset the Water Filter Light on Any Refrigerator.
+
Under the US Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Whirlpool generally cannot void your refrigerator warranty solely for using a certified compatible filter. They must demonstrate the compatible filter directly caused the damage claimed. For refrigerators under 12 months of full warranty, OEM is the cautious choice. For all other Whirlpool refrigerators, certified compatible is the recommended option.
+
No — cloudy or grey water after installing a new filter is completely normal. New activated carbon filters contain fine loose carbon particles that make the first water appear milky. Continue flushing — run 2–3 gallons through the dispenser and discard. The water will run completely clear after proper flushing. If cloudiness persists after 3+ gallons, remove and reinsert the filter ensuring a firm quarter-turn clockwise lock.
