If your fridge has started tasting a little off, or the produce drawer smells like last week's onions no matter how much you clean it, it's probably time to swap both filters at once. This is the genuine Frigidaire combo that does exactly that β a PurePour PWF-1 water filter paired with a PureAir RAF-2 air filter, both made to factory spec, not aftermarket guesses.
What the water filter actually does
The PWF-1 is certified to knock out around 99% of the stuff you don't want in your glass β lead, mercury, cysts, pesticides, BPA, and even trace pharmaceuticals that can slip through municipal water treatment. Chlorine taste disappears too, so your water and ice taste like water and ice again, not like a swimming pool.
There's a real environmental angle here as well: one filter, rated for 125 gallons, offsets roughly 1,800 disposable water bottles. That's not a marketing throwaway line β it's genuinely one of the better arguments for staying on top of filter changes instead of just running the tap.
What the air filter actually does
RAF-2 (the same filter Frigidaire used to call AF-2, if that name sounds more familiar) leans on carbon block technology to grab odors before they spread. Fish, garlic, leftover takeout β instead of that smell working its way into your milk or butter, it gets trapped. Frigidaire's own testing puts it ahead of a box of baking soda, which, if you've ever actually compared the two, isn't a hard bar to clear.
Installing both takes about two minutes
Neither filter needs tools. Pull the old cartridges, snap the new ones into place, done. Check your refrigerator's Use & Care guide if you want the exact housing location, since it varies slightly across Frigidaire models
