I discovered this when I put a reverse osmosis system in and wanted to bypass the filter. I needed a $50 plastic plug with an RFID tag in it or else the fridge refused to dispense.
For anyone with one of these GE fridges. If you read the fine print in the owner’s manual, they will send you a bypass plug for free (just once) if you call and ask for one. You will need to provide the serial number of the fridge.
I’m moving to a place with well water, how difficult was it to install reverse osmosis and hook it up to the fridge? Does yours just provide for the fridge or the whole house?
I have an RO system that feeds a separate spigot at my kitchen sink and my refrigerator. Installing it is really simple because it just uses sharkbite connectors that just push to connect. Later on, I added a water heater so that I could have on demand hot water at the spigot which is also nice.
I have a separate filter that takes care of my whole house but that is just a carbon filter meant to scrub out the chlorine (I’m on city water) . Installation for that took a lot more effort and planning.
It’s just a small under-counter system that’s only running to the fridge and a separate spigot at the sink to fill pots with, etc. it was simple to install since my existing tap had enough pressure to push through all of the filters. I’ve never heard of whole-house RO, I think that would use a TON of water and you would definitely need a pump (in addition to a large storage tank).

Damn. TIL.
What is the bypass plug? Does it contain an RFID chip or can these be mass produced?
