The Fisher & Paykel 847200 water filter is known to develop leaks over time, primarily due to wear and tear in the plastic housing. This degradation typically occurs within 12 to 24 months, especially under regular use and pressure cycles. The seal areas and plastic threads weaken, increasing the chance of slow leaks or sudden failures. We hope this ongoing issue will eventually be addressed by them in the near future
So what’s the fix?
For current users experiencing this issue we strongly recommend switching to a universal external filter setup without the leakage causing housing itself.
Our DIY friendly solution is a universal fridge filter setup that connects directly to the water line outside the fridge with all required parts included, is wear and tear future-proof and geared with a premium GAC cartridge without needing to sacrifice price for performance. Feel free to give it a go as we have been spammed with a handful of thumbs ups by our customers.
