Here I am working at an office. We didn’t want to turn off the water to the building because we didn’t know where it was and could get ahold of the landlord. So in this hook up I tried to keep it inline with a valve in an easy access position. I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL PLUMBER by no means but the owner of the business trust me and I know enough to DIY this set up. Any question comments or ways to do it better please feel free to comment!

Cool. Finally a video that isn't cutting into pipe or using those super jenky pipe stabbing clamps that mess up your pipes. I live in a townhouse/apt so there is no water line. I will probably do the same drilling into cupboards to keep it as discrete as possible. Will be so nice to have our ice maker working this summer.

Great video, definitely going to try this out! It’d be nice to have all the tools and items purchased in the description box to make it easier for your viewers but I’ll just go through the video when I purchase haha

Awesome! When my new refrigerator comes in I will try to add water to it, sadly my old house doesn’t have water going to the fridge and the fridge I have is a normal fridge.

@L8nightShift 4 года назад

Good job bro!! Respect your resilience through the whole process. Got a little dizzy while watching though 🌀

@@destinywood9059 So the water line installation kit I bought won’t the connector that comes with it that you connect to the waterline that’s already coming out of the fridge it won’t fit it so now I don’t know what to do

Nice !! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more of your DIY projects. Good stuff.

@carlosgallegos3561 Год назад

so many other ways that valve you used is meant for gas btw. i hope you didn’t have any leaks

@steelogrimm7140 3 года назад

You forgot to put the feral on before the brass fitting then tighten to main valve. Your going to catch a leak eventually .

@destinywood9059 3 года назад

I believe I did, what time stamp are you referring to? Also its been a year and no leaks!

@oliviastreich1374 10 месяцев назад

Only thing I’d do differently it not give the fridge so much water pressure

@kevindelgado1335 Год назад

Im so glad we can’t do male to male

@bkoz319 2 года назад

every fitting used was the incorrect type, just waiting for a flood to happen. Thats why you had so many issues with leaks.

@destinywood9059 2 года назад

2 years and no flood!

@SantanaSam12 2 года назад

It actually was not the wrong fitting … can you see ?

@bchluvrxyz816 2 года назад

Besides using dissimilar metals, they make a fitting that has an outlet for the sink supply, and a 1/4” outlet for the refrigerator water line supply. Also, most plumbers will recommend to never use the plastic line, always go for copper. Many leaks and broken lines are due to the degradation of the plastic over time, making it brittle and prone to breakage.

@gurutrips9440 3 года назад

Bro what sizes did you use for all this attachments??

@destinywood9059 3 года назад

I think they were 1/2 inch. But yours may vary. Good tip is by 2 or 3 different sizes then return the ones that didn’t fit.

@zulmarosario1346 3 года назад

I been looking for a video like this everyone i had seen are plastic tube. One question you have a silver valve and the yellow you turn both on and leave them one at all times. Thank you

@destinywood9059 3 года назад

Hello! Yes I leave them both on. the yellow valve is strictly for the Refrigerator, incase that they'd like to move the fridge the can shut of the water supply solely to that line. thanks!
