INSTALLING A REFRIGERATOR WATER LINE

Do you need a plumber for refrigerator water lines and installing a fridge with an ice maker? Wondering how running a water line to a fridge pipe works? That Plumber has you covered.

A new refrigerator is usually a somewhat stressful purchase, unless you’re simply buying to upgrade. Even then, figuring out how to get it installed and running a water line to a fridge can be something of a hassle.

Did you know That Plumber can install both the refrigerator itself as well as properly running the water line to your ice maker and through-the-door water and ice dispensers? With our services, you’ll no longer have to research and stress over how to hook up a refrigerator water line. 

When you are ready for water line installation to your fridge, there is a right way and a wrong way to put in the water line to your fridge. The kit that comes with your refrigerator typically does not include a stop valve. Instead, they usually have what is called a saddle valve, which is not up to code in most areas. Water line hookup and installation fitting kits also usually include plastic tubing, which can crack over time, causing leaking as well as water contamination.

Instead, That Plumber suggests that you have the refrigerator water line professionally installed with flexible copper tubing that will be tapped into the cold water pipe coming into your kitchen. Cutting into the cold water line and installing a regular tee fitting will ensure the greatest dependability over the long term. The flexible copper piping and professional fridge water line connector installation can help ensure that the water and ice from your fridge are clean and taste great. If your pipes are steel or plastic, That Plumber will be sure to use the appropriate materials in your home.

If your fridge works great but your ice maker doesn’t, we can fix that too! We can install the ice maker water line and fix the water line for the fridge itself, along with any other refrigerator exterior line needs. (Although if you’re in need of repairs to the fridge itself, please reach out to the manufacturer or place of purchase.)
