Frequently Asked Questions

Which part numbers are the same filter as the GE XWFE?

GE lists the XWFE under one number. It replaced the XWF, so a refrigerator that shipped with one of those takes the XWFE now.

Which refrigerators take the XWFE?

6 refrigerator models on FilterHound list the XWFE: GE GDE21EGKWW, GE GSS25IYNFS, GE GWE19JGLBB, GE GNE25JGKWW, GE GFE26JYMFS, GE GYE22GENDS. Each model page shows the exact model numbers its source covers.

How often should you replace the XWFE?

The XWFE is rated at 6 months or 170 gallons, per GE. If the dispenser slows noticeably before then, change it early.

Is the XWFE NSF certified?

NSF/ANSI 42, NSF/ANSI 53, NSF/ANSI 401 (claimed by GE). FilterHound has not checked these listings against NSF's own database, so read them as the maker's claim.

Fitment notes

GE says XWFE replaced XWF in 2020, kept the same size, shape, assembly and installation, and is compatible with every refrigerator that used XWF; the older XWF is therefore recorded as a superseded number rather than a duplicate filter page. XWFE adds RFID-based LeakDetect and life-remaining information. GE rates it for six months or 170 gallons at up to 0.5 gpm and lists NSF/ANSI 42, 53 and 401. Five model spec sheets name XWFE directly, while GE's GYE22GENDS parts page lists both XWFE and RPWFE.
