Hello,
I purchased a Whirlpool Gold WRX988SIBM00 Refrigerator and am experiencing extremely slow water dispense speed when using a filter. If I remove the filter, the water comes out extremely fast. (along with loud noises on the top front corner where I am guessing a water pump may be located).
To summarize "slow", with the filter in, It takes ~22 seconds to dispense 1 cup of water. I am using the water filter that came packaged with the refrigerator. This Refrigerator is ~6 months old and has always been this slow. I use the water function daily.
Could this be a bad filter and/or Refrigerator?
Is this level of "slow" normal for this model?
Anything I can do to improve water flow?
Thanks!
