RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA specifics — where the filter actually lives

The RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA carries its water filter upper rear of the fresh-food section in most French-door builds with interior dispensers, the same estate every French-door multi-door refrigerator in this family uses. Mechanically the RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA uses a push-in cartridge; the cartridge seats with a click you can feel through the housing; no rotation, no tools, no drama.

Field notes: expect the first swap to take longer than the box suggests — aged o-rings grip — so budget ten minutes, not five. One prefix, one chassis family: the RF run is Samsung’s French-door multi-door series; across the run, the filter bay is one of the constants. That AA suffix is trim-level shorthand. Samsung kept the DA9717376B bay common to every finish in the line.

RF vs RS — what the prefix tells you

Catalog shorthand: RF marks French-door multi-door builds and RS marks side-by-side builds. Cross-checking the prefix before ordering is faster than returning the wrong cartridge. Capacity check: the 28 cubic feet in the code is the box size, and bigger boxes push more water through the same cartridge between swaps.

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.

What this filter takes out of your water

What it targets	Standard that covers it
Chlorine taste & odor	NSF/ANSI 42 — aesthetic effects
Particulates, Class I	NSF/ANSI 42 — fine sediment
Lead	NSF/ANSI 53 — health effects
Cysts (cryptosporidium, giardia)	NSF/ANSI 53 — microbial
PFOA & PFOS	NSF/ANSI 53 (P473) — varies by cartridge

Coverage above lists what the standard addresses, not a performance claim for any specific cartridge — removal claims vary by certificate, so check the NSF listing for the exact part number you are buying.

Samsung RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA: how do I clear the change-filter light?

Press and hold the reset control until the light clears (a few seconds), with the new cartridge already seated — the RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA owner’s manual lists the button location for your control panel.

Can I run the Samsung RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA with no cartridge installed?

You can, but unfiltered — the DA9717376B bay needs no bypass plug; it just passes water through without filtering while the cartridge is out.

Are off-brand filters safe for a Samsung 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 DA9717376B 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 RF28R7351SG-RF28R7351SG/AA?

Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the DA9717376B 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.
