Replace your used refrigerator cartridge with this premium DA97-17376B compatible water filter for Samsung HAF-QIN systems. Designed for select Samsung French-door, side-by-side and 4-Door Flex refrigerators, it replaces filters marked HAF-QIN, HAF-QIN/EXP or DA97-08006C.
The activated-carbon filtration media helps reduce unwanted chlorine taste, odor and particulates before water reaches your refrigerator dispenser and ice maker. Its quarter-turn connection provides a straightforward replacement for compatible HAF-QIN filter housings.
Important: This is a compatible replacement filter. It is not manufactured or endorsed by Samsung.
Why Choose This DA97-17376B Replacement Filter?
Compatible With the Samsung HAF-QIN System
This cartridge is designed as a replacement for refrigerators using the Samsung HAF-QIN filtration system. Its dimensions, locking tabs and connection style are made to match compatible DA97-17376B filter housings.
Use the exact part number rather than relying only on the refrigerator brand. Samsung refrigerators use several filter styles, including HAF-QIN, HAF-CIN and HAFCU1, which are not interchangeable.
Helps Improve Water and Ice Taste
Activated-carbon filtration helps reduce chlorine taste and odor that can affect refrigerator water, cold drinks and ice.
It also helps capture sediment and particulates that may influence water clarity. Actual reduction performance depends on the filtration media, incoming water conditions and certification of the exact cartridge supplied.
300-Gallon Replacement Capacity
The filter is designed to provide filtration for up to 300 gallons or approximately six months under normal household use.
Replace it sooner when:
- The refrigerator filter indicator turns red
- Water develops an unusual taste or odor
- Dispenser flow becomes noticeably slower
- The filter reaches its rated capacity
- Your refrigerator manual recommends an earlier change
Larger households and frequent water or ice use may require more frequent replacement.
Quick 90-Degree Twist-Lock Fit
The DA97-17376B replacement cartridge uses a quarter-turn locking system. No plumbing modifications or specialist tools are normally required.
Remove the used filter by turning it counterclockwise. Insert the new cartridge and rotate it clockwise until the handle reaches the locked position.
Cost-Effective OEM Alternative
This compatible HAF-QIN filter offers a replacement option for customers who do not require a Samsung-branded OEM cartridge.
Compatibility should always be confirmed using your old filter number, refrigerator model and filter-housing design before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a genuine Samsung DA97-17376B filter?
No. This is a compatible replacement designed for refrigerators that use the Samsung DA97-17376B or HAF-QIN filtration system.
Is DA97-17376B the same as HAF-QIN?
DA97-17376B is the replacement-cartridge code commonly associated with the HAF-QIN and HAF-QIN/EXP filtration system.
How often should this refrigerator filter be replaced?
Replace it approximately every six months or after 300 gallons, whichever occurs first. Heavy usage or changes in water flow, taste or odor may require earlier replacement.
Does this filter fit every Samsung refrigerator?
No. It fits only select refrigerators designed for the HAF-QIN filter housing. Samsung refrigerators using HAF-CIN or HAFCU1 cartridges require a different filter.
Does this filter reduce lead and mercury?
Only make specific lead, mercury or cyst-reduction claims when the exact compatible filter supplied is independently certified for those substances. Review its packaging and performance data sheet before advertising health-related contaminant reductions.
Will it reduce the TDS level of water?
Carbon refrigerator filters are not reverse-osmosis systems and are not primarily designed to substantially reduce total dissolved solids. TDS results depend on the filtration media and incoming water.
What should I do after installing the filter?
Flush water through the dispenser for several minutes to clear trapped air and loose carbon particles. Then reset the refrigerator’s filter indicator according to the appliance manual.
Choose this DA97-17376B compatible HAF-QIN refrigerator water filter for straightforward installation, a 300-gallon rated capacity and compatibility with supported Samsung water and ice systems.
