LFXS29626S/00 specifics — where the filter actually lives
The filter bay on the LFXS29626S/00 inside the fresh-food cavity, upper zone in most French-door builds, the same estate every French-door refrigerator in this family uses. The seat combines push-fit and twist-lock: offer the cartridge to the header, press, and rotate until the stop catches; a towel handles the dribble.
Before you click buy, two things: 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 LF prefix is the tell: LF is LG’s French-door designation proper, and the service literature files every one of these under the same cartridge line. Read the 00 ending as a revision marker — LG used it for running changes, none of which touched the LT700P bay.
LF vs LS — what the prefix tells you
LF or LS: the badge difference that does (and does not) change the filter order. LF machines are French-door; LS machines are side-by-side. Both draw from the same cartridge line, which is why fit charts list them together. The two digits after the letters are the cabinet size: this is a 29 cubic feet refrigerator, which sets how much dispenser work the cartridge does between changes.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- 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.

LFXS29626S/00 filter questions
LG LFXS29626S/00: how do I clear the change-filter light?
With the new cartridge seated, press and hold the filter reset until the light clears — panel placement differs, so the LFXS29626S/00 manual’s filter section has the exact control for your trim.
LG LFXS29626S/00: bypass plug needed without a filter?
The bay self-seals: with no cartridge the LFXS29626S/00 still dispenses, just unfiltered. No bypass plug exists for this line.
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 LT700P 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 LFXS29626S/00?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the LT700P 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.
