HAF-CIN, DA29-00020B and the six-month interval

HAF-CIN/EXP is the consumer filter name, while DA29-00020B is the replacement cartridge code Samsung publishes for the system. Those identifiers are useful cross-checks, but the refrigerator model remains the best starting point.

Samsung rates the cartridge for 300 gallons and presents six months as the normal service interval. Actual water use, ice production, local conditions, reduced flow and a filter indicator can all justify changing it sooner.
