FPHS2699PF1 specifics — where the filter actually lives
Finding the bay is the easy part — this chassis puts it behind the lower fresh-food trim or base grille in most side-by-side layouts, the same estate every side-by-side refrigerator in this family uses. It is a twist-lock bay: the cartridge drops into the keyed seat and locks with a short quarter turn.
Owners of the FPHS2699PF1 report the same friction points: a stiff first removal on builds that sat on the same cartridge for years, and an indicator light that wants a manual reset after a non-OEM cartridge is seated. The FPHS in FPHS2699PF1 is doing real work: FPHS typically codes for side-by-side machines in this catalog, and in that format the water path is long enough that a neglected cartridge shows up as flow drop before it shows up as taste. That F1 suffix is trim-level shorthand. Frigidaire kept the ULTRAWF bay common to every finish in the line.
FPHS vs FFSS — what the prefix tells you
FPHS versus FFSS is an era split within side-by-side stock, not a cabinet split — the cartridge family spans both runs. Cabinet decode: 26 cubic feet — the number that tells you whether this cartridge feeds a family-size dispenser or a compact one.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- Twist the old cartridge a quarter turn counterclockwise and pull it straight down — keep a towel in reach for the dribble.
- Fill the new cartridge with cold tap water so the chamber is not fighting an air pocket.
- Offer the new cartridge to the bay, push up, and twist a quarter turn clockwise until the stop catches.
- Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.

FPHS2699PF1 filter questions
How do I reset the filter light on the Frigidaire FPHS2699PF1?
Seat the new cartridge first, then hold the filter-reset control for a few seconds until the status light clears — the exact button placement varies by control panel, so check the FPHS2699PF1 owner’s manual page for filter status.
Will the Frigidaire FPHS2699PF1 dispense water without a filter cartridge?
The bay self-seals: with no cartridge the FPHS2699PF1 still dispenses, just unfiltered. No bypass plug exists for this line.
Are off-brand filters safe for a Frigidaire refrigerator?
Certified aftermarket cartridges are built to the same NSF test standards as the OEM part, and federal warranty law (Magnuson-Moss) protects your coverage when you use them.
Why is the OEM ULTRAWF cartridge so much more expensive?
Part of the OEM price is the badge and the distribution chain. Certified alternatives meet the same test standards at a lower unit price, especially in multi-packs.
How often should I replace the filter in my FPHS2699PF1?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the ULTRAWF class cartridges all share that service interval.
Do I need to turn off the water supply to change it?
No — the bay is designed for a live swap. Expect a small dribble, keep a towel in reach, and flush a couple of gallons through the new cartridge before the first glass.
