Q: QuestionI don’t want an ice maker so do I have to buy the water line if I don’t need or want hook up?
Asked by Guiry.
- A:Answer You don't need to hook it up if you don't want ice and water, the fridge will work fine without it.

Q: QuestionIf I am getting a fridge and I have no water connection, does Best Buy run the line to the fridge from the sink area or do I need a plumber to do that ahead of time? I assume it has to be run under the floor so they would have to do it from the basement?
Asked by MrWrestling.
- A:Answer It really depends upon things like, where are the water pipes behind/below your sink & cabinet? Is your basement ceiling 'finished' or just beams? For us, the fridge sat around the corner and 3 cabinets away from the kitchen sink. There was NO way to connect the line from under the sink, and NO way to run the line behind the cabinets. What worked for us was, the guy put the tap-in in the basement on the copper pipe under the kitchen sink, then ran it along the beams (our basement is unfinished, so there is access to the pipes), and had to drill a small hole up into the floor behind the fridge, to connect the copper waterline to the fridge waterline. (Actually my relative was there too and did the drilling.) This worked fine for us. If you wanted to hire a plumber to do it first, before your fridge arrives, I guess you could? Lucky for us the Best Buy contracted installers had no problems.

Q: QuestionWhat if i need more than 6ft? My water line goes into my furnace room and the pipe connection is a ways away. Also my plumber said copper is the best not stainless steel. I have a copper line now but will they connect it for me with a new refrigerator.
Asked by Kathy.
- A:Answer Hi Kathy. I had a copper line as well. It was really long and created a lot of tension where it attached to the fridge in back. This was because the copper line had to be folded in a way for the fridge to slide back in. The tension at the connection resulted in my pump and the mechanicals being pulled away from the fridge and creating a significant leak. When BestBuy arrived to deliver and install the fridge they easily cut away the unnecessary copper line length. They then had a tool that allowed them to easily attach the copper line to the new water line. It took less than 5 minutes. The new water line moved freely enough that when the fridge was slid back in place there is now zero tension where the line connects to the fridge. They make longer lines if you feel that you really need one longer than 6 feet. With that said, if there is a copper line in place leave it. The BestBuy installation guys can then attach the new line to the existing copper and you don't have to worry about the extra length needed.

Q: QuestionDo I need to use the a new stainless steel refrigerator waterline kit with the purchase of my new refrigerator? Or can I use the existing line? Thanks!
Asked by Statesmen23.
- A:Answer We just bought a new Frig with an ice maker and need to install a water line. The salesman offered the best advice and I will pass it on. He recommended, "Go ahead and buy the water line to hook up the frig in the store when you buy the appliance. If you don't need it return it." You will need a cold water feed with a shutoff valve to connect the water line to. Before they show up do your homework and figure out if what you have is good or you need to update plumbing before they get there. But also don't panic (unless you absolutely need water and/or ice in the next 24hrs). If they find they can't make the connection to whatever you have they will advise the best solution. I will update with details and comments after the new frig is installed.

Q: QuestionIf I buy the LG ref. (5308815008) should I buy the waterline kit for hook-up prior to the delivery or will the crew have the part in their truck? Will they move my old ref. to the garage and install the new one in its place?
Asked by Ida.
- A:Answer I bought it with refrigerator and it came when delivered, however they refused to install it.
Answered by Kelly
Q: QuestionI want a chest freezer for my garage. Why do I need to have a water line? I am not making ice. I have friends who have chest freezers and dont have the water line. My question is, do I need a water line with a new freezer? thanks
Asked by Robin.
- A:Answer No.. Only if you have a water hook up for your appliances. A freezer without an ice maker wouldn't need this.

Q: QuestionIf I already have a water line to my current refrigerator, why do I need a new hoop up kit?
Asked by Sally.
- A:Answer I was told that when I bought the refrigerator, I would need a new water line in the event the current line needed to be replaced. It turns out that this new water line was not needed, as I was still able to use the existing water line. I will be returning the new water line for a refund. Guess it better to be safe and purchase a new line and seek refund than to not purchase and have problems with the current line not being compatable.

Q: QuestionMy old refrigerator has a coiled up 1/4" copper line behind it with a lot of extra length. Would I still need the 6' stainless line kit?
Asked by Hobbytech.
- A:Answer I’m assuming so. I hate to not have a direct answer for you. I had about three feet of copper wire and they just attachmented the new hose. I’ve attached a file for you to see the connection. I’m unsure if they would install it without the hose? Maybe you’d have to call. Good luck! Sorry if I didn’t help much.
