MORE ABOUT YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Plumbing in an Ice-Maker Line

Ice makers in refrigerators, once a luxury item, have become almost a necessity. Once you have become accustomed to easy access to cold water, cubed ice, and crushed ice, it's hard to go back. An refrigerator ice-maker line is small-diameter in outer diameter tubing. Most likely, you will be tapping it into a refrigerator cold-water line a distance away.
Finding Access
To run tubing for the refrigerator ice maker, you will need access. Under-floor access is easiest if it's available. If not, open the walls to run X-in. pipe from the tapping-in location to behind the refrigerator.
If you come through the back wall behind the refrigerator, you can install a small box in the wall to hide the valve where the pipe terminates. The tubing to the refrigerator will come off the valve inside that box.
Running Tubing
To run the outer diameter tubing, drill a hole behind the refrigerator next to the trim. Pull enough tubing through from underneath to make one or two circular loops about 2 ft. in diameter behind the refrigerator. The loops give you some breathing room when the refrigerator needs to be moved for maintenance or refrigerator repairs. The best pipe to use is the metal-braided or white flexible pipe with premade ends is sure to drill the hole large enough for the end-fitting to get through.
I do not recommend running copper tubing. It kinks easily and also gets eaten through quickly by aggressive water. Its wall thickness is proportional to its outer diameter; thus small pipe has very thin walls.
Tapping In
A saddle valve is the most common way of tapping an refrigerator ice-maker line into a water line. It bolts around the pipe. The saddle valve has a sharp, pointed hollow needle that will puncture the pipe. Be sure to read the instructions to verify that you will puncture the right place. Galvanized pipe will have to be drilled read the refrigerator manufacturer's instructions for whole size. Does not use a saddle valve on supply size pipe because the pipe is too small. Check the back of the refrigerator to see if there is a clamp for ac ice-maker pipe to run through just attaches to the refrigerator. Not using the clamp may cause a leak at the compression filling.
If you don't use a saddle valve, cut into the main water line, and insert a T-fitting. Add a short length of pipe a male adapter, and then a fixture shutoff valve.

Power Outages
If you live in an area that has frequent Power outages, you can keep food frozen in a freezer during these periods by doing the following:
•           If possible, keep the freezer full at all times. Keep a few artificial-ice containers (the kind used in picnic coolers) in the freezer to take up the extra space. Otherwise, fill plastic bottles with water and put them in the freezer. The water will freeze. When there is a power outage, this extra ice will help maintain cold temperatures for a relatively long time.
•           If your region experiences a prolonged outage, buy dry ice to place in the freezer. Roughly about 25 pounds of the ice will keep food in a 10-cubic-foot freezer adequately frozen for about three days. Place cardboard on top of the food and dry ice oil top of the cardboard. Re-Move and dispose of the ice when electricity is restored.
Caution: Always wear heavy gloves when handling dry ice.
