A Frigidaire refrigerator in North Canton was leaking water at the filter after the homeowner tried replacing the water filter. Our diagnosis revealed the filter housing in the refrigerator compartment was the culprit.
The Problem
The customer tried replacing the water filter and now it was leaking at the filter when trying to get water from the door. Water was dripping from the filter area whenever they attempted to dispense water.
Diagnosis
We found the filter housing in the refrigerator compartment was leaking. The housing had failed, causing water to leak around the filter connection point rather than flowing properly through the system.

Is It Worth Repairing?
