TS22AFXKQ07 specifics — where the filter actually lives
The TS22AFXKQ07 carries its water filter inside the fresh-food cavity, position varying with dispenser spec — usually a kneeling-height or shoulder-height swap, not a teardown. It is a twist-lock bay: look for the index lugs, offer the cartridge, and rotate until they disappear into the housing.
Two quirks worth knowing before you order: the line is still live when you open the bay, so keep a towel in reach, and expect the filter-status light to need a reset before it believes the new cartridge. What pins the parts choice down is the media line: the EDR5RXD1 media line; that is the anchor every compatible listing hangs from. Read the 07 ending as a revision marker — Estate used it for running changes, none of which touched the EDR5RXD1 bay.
Reading the TS22AFXKQ07 model code — what the digits tell you
Working from the model code, the TS22AFXKQ07 lands somewhere around 2001 to 2005; treat the window as approximate. Cross-checking by chassis pays off here: trim codes shuffle doors and finishes; the EDR5RXD1 cartridge family is the fixed point.
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.

TS22AFXKQ07 filter questions
Estate TS22AFXKQ07: how do I clear the change-filter light?
The reset is a press-and-hold on the filter control with the cartridge in place; check the TS22AFXKQ07 owner’s manual for where that control sits on your panel.
Will the Estate TS22AFXKQ07 dispense water without a filter cartridge?
No — run it empty if you like; the EDR5RXD1 bay needs no bypass plug, it simply passes water through untreated.
Are off-brand filters safe for an Estate 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 EDR5RXD1 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 TS22AFXKQ07?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the EDR5RXD1 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.
