If the line is in place from a previous fridge, hooking it up could not be easier. If not, there are simple kits available the will allow you to install a line from underneath the sink. You'll likely have to drill a couple of small holes inside cabinet walls between the sink and fridge. You will need to be able to shut off the water at the meter or at a valve under the sink to tap a supply line. Pretty easy stuff if you don't want the expense of a plumber and are limber enough to work under the sink.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, the BestBuy guys did the hook up in 5 minutes, but if they didn't it's only a matter of plugging in to the power supply and hooking up one hose, so all you need is one wrench

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's a simple hose hook up in the back. If you have the required stainless steel hose it will be connected for you. You should purchase this with the refrigerator if you don't already have one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need to know how to run a water line to your water supply.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When they came out to deliver fridge from Best Buy, they had to install the water line which only took them less than half hour! They do charge xtra for water line installation of $129 I believe it was.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Ace Hardware sells a kit that includes the tubing, compression fitting, and tap valve that you need. As long as you have access to a cold water pipe (copper) it is an easy process.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Very simple to do it yourself, however if you purchase the extended warranty and you hook it up yourself, if there are any issues with the hook up, it isn't covered under warranty you purchased. But just for the hook up. Everything else is still covered.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not at all. My husband was able to install it within minutes.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, they do it all for you. You do however need a connection for the water. But the delivery person usually carries one with them at the time of delivery
