A:  Hi there! The RPWFE filter does not remove fluoride. The only filter that will reduce fluoride in water can be found in some Reverse Osmosis filtration systems. Let us know if you have any more questions. - John@GEA

A:  Why ask a consumer-ask the manufacturer, or someone from Home Depot-you sell the product. 

A:  On my GE refrigerator, I don't need to reset anything. Once you close up the new filter, the light/notification on the front of the fridge goes off.

A:  Make sure the old one is totally out of the carrier before you pull it straight out. Line up the new one into the socket and it’ll click. Afterwards, make sure you flush out 1 gallon of water because the charcoal will need to clear out from the new one. Also make sure, you dump out the new ice made by the new filter before using.

A:  Hello! We would be happy to assist you. In order to reset your refrigerator, we suggest disconnecting the power to your refrigerator for 2-3 minutes to reset the controls. If you require additional help, please send us a private message via our social media platforms and include the model number of your refrigerator. We hope this helps! Have a nice day. -Shayla@GEA
