I will soon have a new refrigerator delivered. It will replace a unit that does NOT now have a water feed. I do not want to pay the quopted $150, for that water feed to be installed by a plumber.
Does anyone have a recommendation, as to best way to connect to an existing water line. I once used a clamp type device, installed over a copper water line. The clamp had a screw feed that would penetrate the copper tube and then provide the water to a pipe leading to the fridge. Is that still the best way?
Should I then use a new copper pipe, to connect to the fridge's water input. Is there a better (easier) way - ala PEX tubing or other "new" material? I will be connecting to that copper water pipe in my basement, which is maybe 25 feet from the refrigerator.
