Q: Questionmodel number meaningsI have found 4 model names: HAF-SIN/XME, HAF-SIN/EXP, DA29-00020A, DA29-00020B. What are the differences between them. Do they have the same specs? If they are the same, why different names? I read some filters are "aesthetic" filters and some are "health" filters. Is it the case here?

Asked 10 years ago by Dover.

• A:Answer Hi Dover, All of these filters are the same; they are compatible with the same Refrigerators and remove the same impurities. The model codes (HAF-CIN) and Samsung part #s (DA29-00020) are often tagged with a suffix for internal purposes. - Ms. Samsung

Q: QuestionHAF-CIN/XME vs HAF-CIN/EXPI have a model RFG293HARS refrigerator with the original HAF-CIN/XME water filter. Although everyone is telling me that the HAF-CIN/EXP (which, apparently, is the only model sold now) is the same thing, but it is not. The XME has a recessed top and the EXP has a flush top. The EXP will NOT go into my refrigerator. Has Samsung just decided to sacrifice customers who bought models needing the XME or is there a replacement filter available? I have attached photos of the tops of the two models.

• A:Answer When I purchased mine they had two models in stock. One was a shorter version that sounds like what you were looking for - I found it at a store in El Paso. Good luck.

Q: QuestionMy filter says da29-00020b-1. Is that the same as da29-00020b? I cannot find da29-00020b-1 anywhere.

Asked 8 years ago by Jhaus.

• A:Answer These parts are clearly different. The hole diameters on the supplied 00020b model clearly is smaller than the -1 variety. I have purchased two sets off of Amazon from different vendors, and while the BODY is the same, the hole is different. If you try to use the 00020b on the -1, it will break the pin. Samsung is not aware of this minor issue. I spent 3 hours talking to them, and they stated to me that they do not even HAVE a -1 variant. This is really a problem.
