Frigidaire Water and Air Filter Combo Pack (ULTRAWF & PAULTRA) for select refrigerators
Product description
If your fridge water tastes a little “off” or you notice unwanted smells lingering, this Frigidaire Water and Air Filter Combo Pack is the kind of practical fix you can do without tools. It pairs a water filter with an air filter so you can tackle two common day-to-day issues at once.
On paper, the ULTRAWF water filter is designed to reduce up to 99% of contaminants, including chlorine taste and odor, lead, mercury, pharmaceuticals, and more. Meanwhile, PAULTRA uses carbon technology to clear the air and absorb undesirable odors—so the fridge stays fresher longer and food smells are less likely to take over.
That said, it’s a combo pack, so it only makes sense if you actually need both filters for your specific Frigidaire refrigerator. If you’re trying to solve just one problem, you may want to think twice before replacing everything at once.
Key takeaways
What you’re really buying here is a matched set of genuine Frigidaire replacement filters for both water and air. ULTRAWF focuses on improving water taste by reducing contaminants, while PAULTRA targets smells in the refrigerator air using carbon filtration.
It’s also designed for convenience: no tools required, and Frigidaire recommends replacing filters every 6 months. For many households, that cadence is easy to remember and keeps performance from drifting over time.
One more thing to keep in mind: the combo pack is only compatible with select Frigidaire refrigerator models. If your model isn’t in that compatible set, it simply won’t be the right fit.
What it does for water and fridge air
The ULTRAWF water filter is aimed at bringing back clean, pleasant-tasting water. It reduces chlorine taste and odor and is also built to filter out a range of contaminants such as lead and mercury. If you’ve ever taken a glass of water and thought, “why does this taste like the filter is overdue?”—this is the type of replacement that’s meant to restore that baseline.
The PAULTRA air filter takes care of the smell side of things. Carbon technology helps absorb undesirable odors, and the goal is to keep the refrigerator environment fresher for longer. In real life, that can be the difference between “everything smells like last night’s leftovers” and a kitchen where the fridge doesn’t feel like it’s holding onto odors.
Where it shines (and where it may not)
This combo pack stands out if you want a single, straightforward replacement routine for both water and air quality in one go. The “two problems, one purchase” approach can be more convenient than buying water and air filters separately.
It may feel a bit overkill if you only care about water taste and you’re not concerned about odors—or vice versa. And because it’s tailored to select Frigidaire models, compatibility matters more than anything. If you install the wrong type or it doesn’t match your fridge, it won’t help.
Getting the most from it
Installation is described as easy with no tools required, which is the kind of detail that matters when you just want to be done. The practical tip here is to plan your replacement so you don’t stretch past the recommended schedule. Frigidaire notes replacing every 6 months, and that’s a good guideline if you want consistent water taste and odor control.
A quick micro-scenario: imagine you swap in the new ULTRAWF and PAULTRA filters, then run a couple of glasses of water from the dispenser before refilling a pitcher. After that, you’ll usually notice whether the chlorine-like taste is gone. Over the next few days, the fridge air filter is meant to help reduce lingering smells—especially after groceries with strong odors.

Is it worth it?
This is worth considering if you own a compatible select Frigidaire refrigerator and you want to keep both your water tasting right and your fridge air fresher, using genuine Frigidaire replacement filters. The combo pack makes sense when you want a clean, consistent replacement routine and you’re dealing with both chlorine taste/odor in water and unwanted odors inside the fridge.
You may want to skip it if your model isn’t listed as compatible, or if you only need one filter right now. It’s not the best match for someone trying to buy the cheapest possible solution for a single issue, because a combo pack assumes you’ll use both filters.
