FAQs

This cap is designed for side-by-side refrigerators manufactured by Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper. It fits a wide range of models across these brands that utilize the standard filter housing design.
This part replaces OEM numbers 2260518B, 2260502B, WP2260518B, WP2260518BVP, WP2260518W, PS11739970, AP6006882, AH896110, EA896110, and 1058146.
You should consider replacing the cap if the plastic housing has become cracked, the threads are stripped and no longer hold the filter securely, or if you notice water leaking from the filter compartment. A damaged cap can prevent the filter from seating properly, which may lead to water flow issues or an improperly filtered water supply.
Installation is very straightforward and requires no tools. Simply rotate the old cap counter-clockwise to remove it from the filter, align the new cap with the filter base, and turn it clockwise until it locks firmly into place. The entire process typically takes less than a minute.
Ensure the filter itself is pushed fully into the housing before attaching the cap. If the cap feels difficult to turn, do not force it; back it off and ensure the threads are aligned correctly to avoid cross-threading the plastic. A firm, hand-tightened fit is all that is required to maintain a proper seal.
