Confession: I've never changed the water filter on my fridge

[Jen1997]

I've lived in my house for over a year and the huge American fridge freezer came with it. Been drinking the water from in daily. Am I going to die a horrible death??? It looks and tastes clean...

No, it’ll stop working when the filter needs changing.

It's had an indication light on it saying it needs changing. Think we tried to do it once but couldn't work out how to and have managed to ignore it ever since

You'll be fine..or you'll die but you won't know so hey ho

No one else as disgusting as me then???

Clearly not 😬😬😬

Me too - might be three years

We haven’t either and ours is 11 years old.

Oh wow!! Now I feel much better

I'm with Wicked. My fridge is 11 years old and we have not changed a filter (whatever and where ever that is)

@Aprilladvised does it have a water/ice dispenser in the door? That's the bit I'm referring to - we've been drinking that water but it's probably filled with all sorts of germies

Well the water is coming from your mains supply so I guess it's like drinking water from the tap?

Am I supposed to change it??

I'm in Scotland so mine doesn't need changed as we have soft water. Not sure about elsewhere.
