If you have a Manitowoc ice maker that takes the AR-10000-P filter, this K00493 Arctic Pure replacement is what you need to keep your ice tasting clean and fresh.

It is a direct swap – twist and lock design, no tools required.

Takes maybe a minute to install, and you are done.

This filter is serious about water quality.

It knocks out 99.5% of chlorine and lead, which are the big culprits behind bad-tasting ice.

It also traps sediment down to 0.5 microns – rust, dirt, whatever else is floating in your water lines – and gets rid of any funky tastes or odors.

So your drinks actually taste like they should, not like your pipes.

There is also built-in scale-inhibiting media that helps prevent mineral buildup on your evaporator plates and inside the plumbing – even if you have super hard water.

That means less maintenance and a longer life for your ice maker.

Manitowoc recommends swapping this out every 6 months or every 15,000 gallons, whichever comes first.

But honestly, if your ice starts tasting off, just change it earlier.
