Water Filter for the Samsung RWF1100A (DA29-00003G)

RWF1100A specifics — where the filter actually lives

On the RWF1100A, the cartridge in the fresh-food compartment — exact spot varies by dispenser layout — usually a kneeling-height or shoulder-height swap, not a teardown. It is a push-lock bay — the latch does the locking for you; your only job is keeping the cartridge square on the way in.

Before you click buy, two things: flush before the first glass — new carbon beds shed fines for the first gallon or so, which is cosmetic, not contamination. Under the cabinet differences one thing holds: this chassis drinks from the DA2900003G family, one of the most cross-referenced cartridges in the Samsung catalog. That 0A suffix is trim-level shorthand. Samsung kept the DA2900003G bay common to every finish in the line.

Reading the RWF1100A model code — what the digits tell you

Cabinet class 11 cu ft — a box that size leans on the dispenser, so the six-month cartridge interval earns its keep. The stable part of the RWF1100A story is the water path: this generation runs on the DA2900003G line across every cabinet variant.

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.
