What is specific to this model family?
GE lists PYE22KYNFS and PYE22KBLTS as stainless and black-stainless finishes of the same 22.1-cubic-foot counter-depth French-door refrigerator family. Its catalog names RPWFE as the replacement filter. This counter-depth family remains separate from the full-depth PFE28K family even though both use RPWFE.

Open the refrigerator and locate the permanent model-and-serial label, commonly found on a side wall, ceiling, door frame, or behind a crisper drawer. Confirm that the complete label matches one of the covered models: PYE22KBLTS, PYE22KYNFS.
- Use the appliance model—not the serial number.
- Compare RPWFE with the number on the installed cartridge.
- Open the official GE confirmation link before ordering.
- Stop if the old and new filter connections do not match.
How often should it be replaced?
The listed replacement interval for GE RPWFE is every 6 months. Replace sooner if the refrigerator manual directs you to, the rated capacity is reached, dispenser flow drops noticeably, taste changes, or the filter indicator requests replacement.
A reset light does not renew the cartridge. Reset the indicator only after installing and flushing the correct new filter.
Installation and flushing
Follow GE’s current model-specific instructions and refrigerator prompts; models with filter recognition may require a particular electronic cartridge. Follow the owner’s manual for the exact model label on your refrigerator for the compartment location, release method, flushing volume, and reset sequence.
Air may cause temporary sputtering during the first dispensing cycles. Continue only as directed by the manual and inspect the housing for leaks. If water continues to escape, shut off the supply and recheck the cartridge, seals, and housing.
OEM versus compatible filters
Use RPWFE as the reference part when comparing alternatives. A compatible cartridge should explicitly identify that OEM number and provide independent evidence for its certification claims. A similar-looking connector or a broad statement that it “fits GE” is not sufficient.
If considering a third-party option, independently confirm compatibility, the certifier listing, seller, and return policy before opening the package.
