KSBS25INBL00 specifics — where the filter actually lives
Finding the bay is the easy part — this chassis puts it bottom of the fresh-food column or at the grille line in most side-by-side builds, so expect to clear one shelf edge before you have working room. Mechanically the KSBS25INBL00 uses a twist-in cartridge: one twist to release, one to lock; between them you are holding the entire service procedure.
Practical notes from the install forums: the reset control is the step everyone skips; the light will not acknowledge a new cartridge on its own. Read the prefix and the maintenance writes itself: count on KSB to place this unit among side-by-side variant builds; that placement carries the water-path geometry with it. Revision 00 changed trim details, not the water circuit; order with confidence by model stem.
KSB vs KSR — what the prefix tells you
Catalog shorthand: side-by-side variant against side-by-side chassis, respectively. Filter bays rarely care — the media family carries over more often than not. Under the cabinet differences one thing holds: the EDR3RXD1 media line; that is the anchor every compatible listing hangs from.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- Twist the old cartridge a quarter turn counterclockwise and pull it straight down — keep a towel in reach for the dribble.
- Fill the new cartridge with cold tap water so the chamber is not fighting an air pocket.
- Offer the new cartridge to the bay, push up, and twist a quarter turn clockwise until the stop catches.
- Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.

KSBS25INBL00 filter questions
KitchenAid KSBS25INBL00: 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 KSBS25INBL00 owner’s manual lists the button location for your control panel.
Can I run the KitchenAid KSBS25INBL00 with no cartridge installed?
No — the EDR3RXD1 bay seals on the cartridge itself, so removing it just means unfiltered water until the next change, not a leak.
Are off-brand filters safe for a KitchenAid 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 EDR3RXD1 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 KSBS25INBL00?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the EDR3RXD1 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.
