Water Filter for the Samsung RS267LABB (DA29-00003G)

RS267LABB specifics — where the filter actually lives

Where the filter actually lives: behind the lower fresh-food trim or base grille in most side-by-side layouts, the same estate every side-by-side refrigerator in this family uses. This is a push-style bay, the simplest geometry there is: swap time is measured in minutes because the bay asks exactly two things: pull straight, push straight.

Field notes: flush before the first glass — new carbon beds shed fines for the first gallon or so, which is cosmetic, not contamination. The RS in RS267LABB is doing real work: RS is Samsung’s own coding for side-by-side machines, and in that format the water path is long enough that a neglected cartridge shows up as flow drop before it shows up as taste. Trim code BB: cosmetic variants of one chassis, one cartridge family.

RS vs RF — what the prefix tells you

The RS prefix sits next to RF in the catalog and the split is cabinet mission: RS means side-by-side, RF means French-door multi-door. For filter shopping the distinction matters less than you would think — same line, different cabinet. Capacity check: the 26 cu ft 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.
