RS2555BB specifics — where the filter actually lives
On the RS2555BB, the cartridge low on the fresh-food side or behind the base grille in most side-by-side layouts, the same estate every side-by-side refrigerator in this family uses. Mechanically the RS2555BB uses a push-in cartridge; swap time is measured in minutes because the bay asks exactly two things: pull straight, push straight.
Owners of the RS2555BB report the same friction points: keep a folded towel under the bay before you open it; the line holds a cup of water even with the valve shut. Prefix literacy pays here: it places the machine in Samsung’s side-by-side family, which pins down the cartridge line, the reset behavior, and the service documentation worth consulting. BB is finish coding: handles, colors, panel options — none of it reaches the filter bay.
RS vs RF — what the prefix tells you
The catalog pairs RS with RF, and the split matters at order time: RS marks side-by-side builds and RF marks French-door multi-door builds. Cross-checking the prefix before ordering is faster than returning the wrong cartridge. read the code as 25 cu ft of capacity, which tells you the cartridge’s real workload between changes.
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.

RS2555BB filter questions
How to reset the water filter indicator: Samsung RS2555BB?
Hold the filter-reset control a few seconds after the swap; the status light clears only with a seated cartridge, and the RS2555BB manual maps the control by panel type.
Samsung RS2555BB: bypass plug needed without a filter?
No cap needed — the DA2900003G bay passes water unfiltered while empty; it does not leak, it just skips filtration.
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 DA2900003G 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 RS2555BB?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the DA2900003G 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.
