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 it reads MFW2055FRZ, including the final letters and numbers.

- Compare EDR1RXD1 with the number on the installed cartridge.
- Open the official Maytag 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 everydrop® Filter 1 is every 6 months or 200 gallons. 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
Relieve dispenser pressure if needed, follow the housing arrows, and stop if the replacement does not align with light hand pressure. Follow the MFW2055FRZ owner’s manual for the exact 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 EDR1RXD1 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 Maytag” is not sufficient.
If considering a third-party option, independently confirm compatibility, the certifier listing, seller, and return policy before opening the package.
