Shut off the main water supply:Choose the valve location:Drill the hole for the valve:Fasten the shutoff valve:Tighten the pipe clamp:Route the tubing:Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear the line of water.Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connectinto the side of a vertical water pipe. If necessary to connect to a horizontalwater pipe, make the connection at the top or side rather than at the bottom, toavoid any sediment from the water pipe.Drill a hole in the water pipe (even if you are using a self-piercing valve)using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe.Make sure not to allow water to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a hole mayresult in reduced ice production or smaller ice cubes.Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR must be adheredto. Saddle valves are illegal and use in not permitted in Massachusetts.Consult with your licensed plumber.Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing water begins to swell. Do not over-tighten or you may crush the tubing.Route the tubing between the cold water line and the refrigerator. Route thetubing through a hole drilled in the wall or floor (behind the refrigerator oradjacent base cabinet) as close to the wall as possible. Be sure there issufficient extra tubing (about 8', 2.4m, coiled into 3 turns of about 10 25cmdiameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation.¼”¼””,Connecting the Water Supply LineInstall the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used drinking water line.
