INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used

drinking water line.

1. SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY

Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the

line.

2. CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION

Choose a location for the valve that is

easily accessible. It is best to connect

into the side of a vertical water pipe.

When it is necessary to connect into

a horizontal water pipe, make the

connection to the top or side, rather

than at the bottom, to avoid drawing

off any sediment from the water pipe.

3. DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE

Drill a ¼ in. hole in the water pipe using a sharp bit.

Remove any burrs resulting from

drilling the hole in the pipe. Be

careful not to allow water to

drain into the drill. Failure to

drill a ¼ in. hole may result

in reduced ice production or

smaller cubes.

NOTE:

The hookup line cannot be white, plastic

tubing. Licensed plumbers must use only copper

tubing NDA tubing #49595 or 49599 or Cross Link

Polyethylene (PEX) tubing.

4. FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE

Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with

the pipe clamp.

NOTE:

Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing

Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are

illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts.

Consult with your licensed plumber.

5. TIGHTEN THE PIPE CLAMP

Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer

begins to swell.

NOTE:

Do not overtighten clamp or you may crush the

tubing.

6. ROUTE THE TUBING

Route the tubing between the cold water line and the

refrigerator.

Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the wall or

floor (behind the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet)

as close to the wall as possible.

NOTE:

Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about

8 feet coiled into 3 turns of about 10 in. diameter) to

allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after

installation.

7. CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE VALVE

Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for

copper tubing onto the end of the tubing and connect

it to the shutoff valve. Make sure the tubing is fully

inserted into the valve. Tighten the compression nut

securely.

NOTE:

Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing

Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are

illegal and their use is not permitted in

Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber.
