LFX25960ST specifics — where the filter actually lives

The filter bay on the LFX25960ST upper rear of the fresh-food section in most French-door builds with interior dispensers, so expect to clear one shelf edge before you have working room. It is a push-twist bay — seat first, rotate second — reversing the order is the only way to fight this bay, and it will not let you.

The small print owners learn the hard way: a first removal that fights a set o-ring, and a status light that needs a manual hold-to-reset before it acknowledges the new cartridge. Decode the plate and the parts question answers itself: LG uses it across the French-door range, which means shared cartridge economics — one media family, dozens of cabinet variants, all drinking from the same parts catalog. ST is finish coding: handles, colors, panel options — none of it reaches the filter bay.

LF vs LS — what the prefix tells you

Same parts shelf, two cabinet missions — The French-door/side-by-side split tracks the LF/LS prefixes — cartridge fit follows the water path, not the label on the door. cabinet class 25 cu ft — a box that size leans on the dispenser, so the six-month cartridge interval earns its keep.

Swap it in 5 minutes

Installing the replacement water filter in the LFX25960ST
  • Press the release (if fitted), twist the old cartridge free, and pull it from the header.
  • Wet the new cartridge’s o-ring with cold tap water so it seats without dragging.
  • Push the cartridge square onto the header, then give it the locking quarter turn.
  • Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.

LFX25960ST filter questions

Reset procedure for the change-filter alert on the LFX25960ST?

With the new cartridge seated, press and hold the filter reset until the light clears — panel placement differs, so the LFX25960ST manual’s filter section has the exact control for your trim.

Can I run the LG LFX25960ST with no cartridge installed?

Nothing to buy — the LT600P housing closes without a cartridge; water runs unfiltered until the next one goes in.

Are off-brand filters safe for a LG 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 LT600P 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 LFX25960ST?

Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the LT600P 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.
