Connecting a water supply to fridge

[smoggyboro]

Hi,

Can i get a 15mm compression to push-fit connection, so that i can connect a american style fridge to the mains supply ?

I was hoping to run a twin connection from the washing machine supply, to a new fitting and wonder what the best option is ?

I am waiting for delivery but believe it may a 1/4" plastic line that needs a push-fit connection.

Any advice would be welcome.

Thanks

The fridges usually come with a hard plastic inlet pipe about 10mm diameter and about 6 foot long. The end of this is fitted with a washing machine size 3/4 connector which will fit a standard appliance valve. If you have a washing machine or dishwasher already, just get a y shape two into one adaptor and feed the fridge and washing machine from that.

That's the sort of connection i would be hoping for, i will need to extend and route the supply due to having concrete floors with karndean flooring, i am
looking at removing skirting and placing supply behind that.

You don't need a high rate of water delivery: 10mm plastic or 8mm copper pipe will work fine and is easier to conceal.

plastic is the type i'm planning to use, it's just easier with the 3/4 washer type connection.
