Why this filter
Before you buy
For GRMC2273CF, use the specified PWF-2 FPPWFU02 cartridge. The refrigerator checks the filter electronically; the wrong, expired or improperly installed cartridge can cause a filter error. Reusing an expired cartridge does not make it a fresh replacement.
One PWF-2 cartridge. Match FPPWFU02 on your old filter or confirm the exact refrigerator model before buying. PWF-1 FPPWFU01 and the A15601108 bypass are different items; a bypass does not filter water.
What it filters
Independent certification confirms that this filter, when used in the listed system PurePour Connect PWF-2, reduces lead and mercury, among other listed substances. That does not mean it removes everything or guarantees safe tap water. Open the test details below for the full list and limits.
Which system these results apply to
These test results apply only when used in PurePour Connect PWF-2. They cover the filter and system together, not the filter on its own. Confirm your installed system before relying on these results.
How this compares
This is a checked replacement, not a Best Overall or Best Value winner yet. Before choosing a winner, we need other filters we can trust, a fair comparison of how they work and how reliable they are, and current prices including shipping.
Filtration tests and details
These records explain which filter results we have checked and what their limits are. The same certification name does not mean two filters work equally well.
Standards used in these tests
The listings use NSF/ANSI 42-2022, NSF/ANSI 53-2021, NSF/ANSI 401-2023. A shared standard name does not mean two filters reduce the same substances or have the same tested capacity or performance.
How the certification identifies this filter
This filter is shown here as FPPWFU02. The certification listing uses PurePour Connect PWF-2. Reviewed model-mapping evidence connects that certified identity to this product; matching brand names or retailer titles alone would not establish this connection.
What we have verified about filtration
IAPMO's independent listing for certified model PurePour Connect PWF-2 certifies reduction of 2,4-d, asbestos, atrazine, benzene, carbofuran, cysts, endrin, lead, lindane, mercury, o-dichlorobenzene, p-dichlorobenzene, pfoa/pfos, tetrachloroethylene, toxaphene, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) under NSF/ANSI 53, a standard covering specific health-related contaminant reductions. This means reduction under the certification's test conditions—not removal of every contaminant or a guarantee about your tap water. Certification establishes verified capabilities; it does not establish superiority over another filter.
Chlorine, chloramine and particles
The exact-model NSF/ANSI 42 listing certifies reduction of chlorine, nominal particulate class i, taste and odor. These are separate verified capabilities from the health-related reductions above; a generic certification logo alone would not tell us which of them an alternative filter provides.
Additional verified reductions
The exact-model NSF/ANSI 401 listing certifies reduction of the following 9 listed substances or particles: Atenolol, bisphenol A (BPA), Estrone, Ibuprofen, Microplastics, Naproxen, Nonylphenol, Phenytoin, Trimethoprim. This is a defined list—not a claim to remove every trace chemical or particle. An alternative must be checked against its own exact-model list before we can describe its coverage as equivalent.

Installation and care
Installing the replacement
For GRMC2273CF: turn off the ice makers. Pull the filter cover forward and down beside the adjustable-temperature drawer. Push the old cartridge to release it and slide it out; keep a towel ready. Remove the two clear connector caps from the new filter, align it and push until it clicks. Check for leaks while dispensing, close the cover and flush for about four minutes after the first glass. Authentication may take up to 30 seconds, then filter status updates automatically. Turn the ice makers back on. These instructions do not require shutting off this model’s water supply; other models may differ.
Frigidaire lists a push-to-lock installation. Follow your exact refrigerator instructions for removing the old cartridge, fitting the new one, flushing and checking filter status.
Caring for the filters
Frigidaire suggests changing this cartridge every three to six months, depending on water and use. Do not treat that range as a guarantee of filter life.
