Samsung RF31FMESBSR Water Filter Replacement
Why The DA29-00020B (HAF-CIN/EXP) water…
The DA29-00020B (HAF-CIN/EXP) water filter is the correct and only compatible filter for the Samsung RF31FMESBSR refrigerator. This model uses an internal, push-to-connect filter system, and the DA29-00020B (HAF-CIN/EXP) is specifically designed with the necessary twist-lock mechanism and dimensions for a secure, leak-free fit. Users sometimes confuse this with external inline filters or older Samsung internal filters that have different connection types, but for the RF31FMESBSR, the DA29-00020B (HAF-CIN/EXP) is essential.
