CONNECTING THE WATER LINE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(CONTINUED)

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 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

″

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 use is not
permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your
licensed plumber.

8. FLUSH OUT THE TUBING

Turn the main water
supply on and flush out
the tubing until the water
is clear.

Shut the water off at the
water valve after about
one quart of water has
been flushed through the
tubing.
