Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra Refrigerator Water Filter
Pros
- Official Frigidaire page names NSF/ANSI 42, 53, and 401 certification in PureSource Ultra systems
- 200-gallon/six-month service cycle gives a clear maintenance deadline
- Genuine-filter packaging and compatibility warnings are useful for avoiding counterfeit or wrong-family cartridges
Cons

- Annual cartridge cost is high for a fridge-only drinking-water path
Our Verdicts
Clearly Filtered 10-Cup Water Filter Pitcher
Clearly Filtered is a useful launch product because it shows the exact evidence distinction Filter Report exists to make: some claims are certified, while broader health-effect claims need lab-report and certifier receipt review before being repeated as fact.
Frigidaire ULTRAWF PureSource Ultra Refrigerator Water Filter
Frigidaire ULTRAWF is a useful receipt-led cartridge pick because the official page gives standards, capacity, flow, and replacement cadence in one place. It should be recommended only to owners whose refrigerator specifically calls for ULTRAWF/PureSource Ultra.
