Yes

american style fridges with the ice water dispenser use 1/4" ldpe pipe and fittings.

Fittings pack comes with the fridge and are not readily avialable if missing.
And they dont usually require a waste.

Hate to contradict but put one in last year that did.

 

[namsag]

Have done a dozen and none of them had a waste at all.

thats why i always make sure i have loads of them.

 

[namsag]

How many have you come across seco that req wastes ?

 

[seco services]

to be honest none and i have done quite a few over the last few summers when they all go mad for ice cubes.
thats why i brought quite alot of the connectors, pipe etc.

but can say they have all just had a drip tray, which are pretty hopeless.

glad they haven't had a waste cause 99% have all been on the oppersite
side of the kitchen to the mains supply.

A 1 in 4 doesn't make it utterly unusual either.
