I purchased Samsung model # RS265LBBP in April, and since then I had to change 3 filters. They last only about a month..give or take. I called Samsung and they sent technician out to fix it when it started doing it 1st time, he told me to replace the filter. When have new filter in, water flows great, but the problem is it last only for about a month, and now I have a light showing me to change the filter, again. I just got off the phone with Samsung and they told me to go and get my water checked cause they have never heard off something like this before!!! He thinks that the water that we have in this area is hard water with lot of debris... I live in Atlanta, GA. Any suggestions???
Thank you so much,

Try to check the water really
This may not be the same problem but after replacing my wall valve cutoff assembly I had no flow. I checked everything associated with the dispenser and had no luck. I even removed the filter and replaced it. Still no luck ....until I shut off the water at the shutoff valve and then turned it slowly back on and I could hear the water flowing. I left it in an partial open position and sure enough the dispensor worked. Then I opened the shutoff valve completely and the dispenser stopped working. The problem was too much water pressure. I backed it off again and it works fine. I live in the country and have my own well that works on a pressure of 30-55 PSI. It appears that the filter apparatus is sensive to too much pressure
Water Filter Status Light (on some models)
The water filter status light will help you know when to change
your water filter. When the water filter status display changes from
"GOOD" to "ORDER," this tells you that it is almost time to
change the water filter cartridge. Replace the water filter cartridge
when the water filter status display changes to "REPLACE." If
water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases
noticeably, change the filter sooner. The filter should be replaced
at least every 6 months depending on your water quality and
usage.
After changing the water filter, reset the status light by pressing
and holding the FILTER button for 3 seconds. The status light will
change from "REPLACE" to "GOOD" when the system is reset.
Changing the Water Filter
1. Press the eject button to release the filter from the base grille.
2. Pull the filter straight out.
3. Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove it from the filter.
IMPORTANT: Do not discard the cap. It is part of your
refrigerator. Keep the cap to use with the replacement filter.
4. Align the ridge on the cap with the arrow on the new filter and
turn the cap until it snaps into place.
NOTE: You can run the dispenser without a filter. Your water
will not be filtered. Simply insert the cap all of the way into the
base grille and rotate the cap until it is firmly in place.
5. Remove the covers from the O-rings. Be sure the O-rings are
still in place after the covers are removed.
6. Push the filter into the base grille. The eject button will pop
back out when the filter is fully engaged.
7. Flush the water system. See "Water and Ice Dispensers."
Water Filter Status Light:
The water filter status light will help you know when to change your water filter.
When the dispenser control panel's water filter status display changes to "ORDER," this tells
you that it is almost time to change the water filter cartridge.
Replace the water filter cartridge when the water filter status display changes to "REPLACE."
The filter should be replaced at least every 6 months depending on your water quality and usage.
NOTE: If water flow to your water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably, change the
filter sooner. After changing the water filter, reset the status light.
Details:
Pressing and holding RESET FILTER starts the 3 seconds countdown. Using the dispenser
cancels the countdown AND no dispensing is permitted. The number '3' blinks 3 times and the
'invalid' tone sounds 3 times and user has to release both the pad and the button and press
the button again to start it over
After 3 seconds, the BLUE WATER BARS in the Icon flash and an audible tone sounds 3
times. When the system is reset, the "ORDER" and "REPLACE" icons will disappear from the
display screen. See figure 16.
Note: Users can reset the filter status at any stage.
