PUREPLUS RFC6600A Refrigerator Water Filter, 2-Pack with Coconut Carbon

Keep refrigerator water and ice tasting fresher with the PUREPLUS RFC6600A replacement filter. Designed as a compatible replacement for Everydrop Filter 3, it uses natural coconut activated carbon and a multilayer filtration design. The two-cartridge pack gives you a replacement on hand for the next filter change.

Its 0.5-micron inner layer is stated to reduce 99.99% of chlorine, and the filter is designed to retain beneficial minerals. For shoppers comparing an original-brand replacement with a compatible cartridge, this option pairs listed refrigerator compatibility with a coconut-carbon filter in a two-pack.

At a glance

Each cartridge measures 2.5 inches in diameter by 12.1 inches high and is made with lead-free material and natural coconut activated carbon. The product lists NSF/ANSI 42 and NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 certifications. It is identified as compatible with Everydrop Filter 3 and refrigerator filter references including EDR3RXD1, 4396841, 4396710, 46-9083, 46-9030, 9030, and W10193691. Match your refrigerator’s existing filter reference to the listed compatible models before choosing a replacement.

The multilayer design addresses chlorine and particulate reduction, while the carbon media is intended to help reduce taste and odor. Buyers commonly describe the fit and installation as straightforward and appreciate the filtered water’s taste. Experiences with water flow are mixed, so follow the installation and flushing steps for a newly fitted cartridge.

How to take care of it

Replace the cartridge every six months, or sooner depending on water quality and how often the dispenser is used. After installation, flush the filter for two minutes to condition it and discard the first two batches of ice. These steps help clear harmless carbon fines from the new cartridge before regular use.

You do not have to shut off the water valve to change the filter. If the existing cartridge is difficult to remove or the new one is difficult to install, turning off the valve can relieve water pressure and make the change easier. Seat the replacement securely according to the refrigerator’s filter design.

Best use cases

This replacement is suited to households that use a compatible refrigerator dispenser for drinking water or ice and want a coconut-carbon filter in place of their current cartridge. Its stated chlorine reduction makes it relevant for people looking to address chlorine in their water, while its multilayer construction also targets particles. The two-pack is practical for keeping the next scheduled replacement available.

Compared with buying only an original-brand cartridge, a compatible replacement offers another way to maintain filtration when the refrigerator’s filter reference matches. The key purchase decision is fit: use the compatibility references above to identify the correct cartridge for your refrigerator rather than relying on appearance alone.
