Water Filter for the Samsung RS267TDPN (DA29-00020B)

RS267TDPN specifics — where the filter actually lives

The filter bay on the RS267TDPN at the base of the fresh-food compartment in most side-by-side builds — grille or lower rear, a deliberate placement that keeps the swap away from the door seals and drawer rails. Mechanically the RS267TDPN uses a push-in cartridge; no threading, no quarter turn, just a straight push until the latch reports in.

Two quirks worth knowing before you order: the first removal takes more force than every later one, and skipping the reset leaves a change-light glaring at a perfectly fresh cartridge. Read the prefix and the maintenance writes itself: when Samsung stamps RS on the plate it is sorting the machine into the side-by-side class — same water path, same cartridge, different cabinet. The PN ending is a finish code — color and handle options, not mechanical ones. Every finish of this chassis takes the same cartridge.

RS vs RF — what the prefix tells you

The RS prefix sits next to RF in the catalog and the split is cabinet mission: Ordering by prefix works because RS means side-by-side and RF means French-door multi-door in this catalog — and the cartridge pool overlaps both. capacity 26 cubic feet: a mid-to-full-size cabinet whose dispenser traffic sets the realistic change cadence.

Swap it in 5 minutes

• Pull the old cartridge straight out of the header — expect a small spill, not a flood.
• Align the new cartridge with the keyed slot; it only goes in one orientation.
• Push the cartridge home until the retention latch clicks.
• Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.
