    Most refrigerators here come with a built-in filter now at least to make ice. And often using a fridge filter or one that attaches to the sink tap is something anyone can do themselves, whereas an under the sink or whole-house system is something many people would hire someone to put in. So it’s probably a combination of convenience and cost.

    We are on a well, so we have a whole-house filter system. But our fridge still came with a filter for its built-in tap.
