Food Grade Silicone Grease - O-Ring Lubricant
GE Appliances water filtration systems such as Whole House, Single and Dual Stage, and Reverse Osmosis systems have an O-ring as a part of their design. The O-ring requires lubrication when the filter is changed.
Lubricating the O-Ring in a Water Filtration System
When replacing the filters on GE Appliances filtration systems it may be necessary to use a lubricant. Any food-grade vegetable oil or food-grade silicone grease can be used to lubricate the O-ring. No petroleum products can be used.
