GE PSS29NSTGSS refrigerator water filter: MWFP
GE’s exact PSS29NSTGSS model page lists MWFP as a refrigerator filter accessory. GE’s cartridge page gives type-specific service and replacement limits. GE Profile 28.5-cu.-ft. stainless side-by-side refrigerator with integrated water dispenser. This record stays within the exact model string and cartridge source listed by the manufacturer; it is not a broad brand-family compatibility claim.
Safety boundary
- Check the exact appliance Owner’s Manual for filter location and reset steps. GE’s guide says model/filter type matters.
- Use the exact cartridge marking: MWFP. Do not force the filter; it should align and lock according to its type-specific instructions.
- After replacement, follow the manufacturer’s purge instructions and inspect for leaks. The MSWF manual says to flush about 4.5 gallons; the MWF/MWFP guide says about 1–2 gallons; use the exact part/model guide.
- Use only potable water within the filter’s specified conditions. Do not rely on the filter to disinfect water or treat water of unknown microbiological quality.
Compatibility requires a direct model listing, explicit supersession, or equivalent manufacturer evidence.
Models explicitly covered
These model identities have the source evidence listed below. Read the part decision and suffix limits before ordering.
Required identifiers
- Exact refrigerator model from rating plate: PSS29NSTGSS.
- Full product/SKU code where applicable: PSS29NSTGSS.
- Water-filter cartridge marking: MWFP.
- Do not substitute a cartridge from another GE filter family.
Compatibility rules
- GE’s exact model-specific parts page lists MWFP as an accessory for PSS29NSTGSS.
- This mapping is for the exact model string PSS29NSTGSS; do not infer fit for other GE/Profile/Café/Monogram models or adjacent variants.
- Use the exact MWF/MWFP or MSWF product label; GE says its filter families differ and are not interchangeable.
Never assume
- MWFP fits every GE refrigerator or a nearby model just because the cabinet or filter looks similar.
- MSWF and MWF/MWFP cartridges are interchangeable; GE lists them as distinct types.
- The filter is a bypass cap, housing, manifold, air/odor filter, or other appliance accessory.
- A certification/contaminant-reduction listing means the cartridge disinfects water or makes microbiologically unsafe/unknown-quality water safe.
- A serial/production difference, filter-head repair, or replacement part supersession is resolved without checking the full appliance label and GE parts source.
Exact model-to-cartridge receipt
- Appliance model named in manufacturer source: PSS29NSTGSS.
- GE Appliances Parts’ exact PSS29NSTGSS model page names a 28.5-cu.-ft. stainless side-by-side refrigerator with an integrated dispenser and lists GE MWF / replacement cartridge MWFP among this exact model’s popular accessories. This is a distinct standard-depth side-by-side model, not a transfer from the GE GNE22 French-door record.
- Listed replacement water-filter cartridge: MWFP.
