hardware store.
You can use plastic tubing, copper tubing, or stainless steel tubing.

Connect the household water line to the assembled compression fitting.
If you are using copper tubing, slip the compression nut (not supplied) and ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing
(not supplied).
OR
If you are using plastic tubing, insert the molded end (bulb) of the plastic tubing into the compression fitting.
OR
If you are using stainless steel tubing, slip the compression nut on the copper tubing (not supplied).
2
Tighten the compression nut onto the compression fitting. Do not over-tighten the compression nut.
