Part 242009604 Water Filter Base (Housing)

Purpose

Holds & seals replaceable water filter

Details

This is a genuine OEM water filter base (or housing / manifold mounting block) that secures the replaceable filter cartridge and directs water flow to the dispenser and icemaker. It connects water lines and forms the seal and structural support for the filter. If the base cracks, leaks, or fails, you may see water leakage, poor flow, or failure of the filtration system. Replacing this restores proper sealing and water routing.
