Water Filter for the Samsung RF267AAWP (DA29-00003G)

RF267AAWP specifics — where the filter actually lives

On the RF267AAWP, the cartridge upper rear of the fresh-food section in most French-door builds with interior dispensers, a deliberate placement that keeps the swap away from the door seals and drawer rails. Mechanically it is a push-in bay: pull the old cartridge straight out, push the new one home until it latches, and you are done.

Practical notes from the install forums: the first removal takes more force than every later one, and skipping the reset leaves a change-light glaring at a perfectly fresh cartridge. Decode the plate and the parts question answers itself: when Samsung stamps RF on the plate it is sorting the machine into the French-door multi-door class — same water path, same cartridge, different cabinet. That WP suffix is trim-level shorthand. Samsung kept the DA2900003G bay common to every finish in the line.

RF vs RS — what the prefix tells you

Two prefixes, two missions: split by cabinet mission (French-door multi-door versus side-by-side), joined by cartridge line — that is the RF/RS story. 26 cubic feet of cabinet — the dispenser sees heavy traffic at that size, and heavy traffic ages cartridges faster.

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.
