Overview
An extruded carbon block inside this Frigidaire PureSource Ultra II cartridge removes chlorine taste and reduces lead, nitrates and mercury from tap water. It slides in with the grip horizontal, then pushes and turns to lock into the fridge.
Certification to health and emerging contaminant standards gives more assurance than taste-only filters. The listing leaves out the gallon rating and replacement interval, and the reminder light needs a manual reset.
Who it's for
Households with a compatible Frigidaire fridge who care about lead and mercury reduction, not just taste. Owners unsure of their model should check the compatibility list, since PureSource filters come in several shapes.
Pros and cons
- Health and emerging contaminant certifications
- Genuine part for listed models
- Tool-free push and twist install
- Clear reset steps for the light
- Gallon rating and lifespan not listed
- Reminder light needs manual reset
- Single filter per pack
Performance notes
Contaminant reduction depends on contact time with the carbon block, which shortens as the filter clogs and pressure drops. The reminder light runs on time, not actual use, so it must be reset by hand after each change.
