Water Filter for the Samsung TS48WLUS (DA29-00003G)

TS48WLUS specifics — where the filter actually lives

Finding the bay is the easy part — this chassis puts it in the fresh-food compartment — exact spot varies by dispenser layout — usually a kneeling-height or shoulder-height swap, not a teardown. Mechanically the TS48WLUS uses a push-in cartridge; the cartridge seats with a click you can feel through the housing; no rotation, no tools, no drama.

The recurring owner notes: keep a folded towel under the bay before you open it; the line holds a cup of water even with the valve shut. The constant across every trim of this machine is the cartridge line — the TS48WLUS shares its water path with the whole DA2900003G generation — the cartridge is the common denominator, not the door count. Trim code US: cosmetic variants of one chassis, one cartridge family.

Reading the TS48WLUS model code — what the digits tell you

Capacity 48 cubic feet: a mid-to-full-size cabinet whose dispenser traffic sets the realistic change cadence. What stays constant across the trim range: model-code suffixes track cosmetics; the DA2900003G fit is invariant across them.

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.
