What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is Ice Maker and Refrigerator Water Line Installation?
Ice maker and refrigerator water line installation means:
Running a dedicated cold water line from a safe, accessible source (often under the kitchen sink or from a nearby line)
Installing a proper shutoff valve for the fridge water supply
Using durable, code-appropriate tubing and fittings—properly secured
Connecting the line to your refrigerator’s water inlet and testing ice/water functions
It can be:
A fresh install for a new fridge in a spot that never had water before
A replacement/upgrade of an old, leaking, or DIY water line
An emergency repair when a fridge line has burst or started leaking
Why Choose Active Plumbing
Leak-prevention mindset: We prioritize secure connections, proper shutoff valves, and solid routing to avoid hidden leaks.
No flimsy shortcuts: We avoid the old-style piercing saddle valves and weak tubing that often fail over time.
Path & access planning: We choose routing that’s serviceable and protected, not just “whatever’s easiest.”
Cabinet & floor aware: We look for signs of cabinet, wall, or flooring damage from slow leaks and alert you early.
Local experience: Familiar with Las Vegas slab homes, tight kitchen layouts, and fridge alcoves.
Licensed & insured: Nevada License #0047021, trusted for ice maker and refrigerator water line installation across the valley.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
If you see water behind or under the fridge, turn off the angle stop/shutoff valve feeding the fridge line or shut off the main if you can’t find it.
Pull the fridge straight out carefully if you can do so without damaging the floor or line—avoid yanking on a tight or kinked line.
Mop up any visible water and check adjacent areas (baseboards, nearby rooms) for spreading moisture.
If this is for a new fridge, take a photo of the back of the fridge connection point and the wall area where the line will enter.
Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357 and tell us if you have a leaking fridge line, need a new line for an ice maker, or want an old DIY line replaced.
Common Ice Maker & Fridge Line Problems We See
Drips or puddles behind or under the refrigerator
Swollen or warped cabinets and baseboards next to the fridge opening
Old plastic or copper lines that crack, kink, or pinhole
Improvised saddle valves tapped into lines that now leak or won’t shut off
Fridge lines that were run across floors or through cabinets where they get crushed or damaged
No existing water line to a new fridge that has ice and water features
If you’re constantly checking behind the fridge for damp spots—or haven’t yet hooked up a new fridge because there’s no line—it’s time to bring in a pro.
Call & Situation Review
You call (702) 438-3357 and tell us whether you have a leak, a new fridge needing a line, or an old line you want replaced. We schedule a visit and note your fridge location and access.
On-Site Inspection & Route Planning
Your plumber inspects the area behind the fridge, nearby cabinets, and under-sink or nearby supply points, looking for the best water source and routing path that balances safety, access, and minimal disruption.
Shutoff Valve & Line Plan
We determine where to install or upgrade a dedicated shutoff valve, select appropriate tubing and fittings, and discuss any wall/cabinet penetrations needed for a clean, protected line route.
Water Line Installation or Replacement
We run the new water line or replace the old one, install or update the shutoff valve, secure the tubing where needed, and penetrate walls/cabinets neatly to keep the line protected and out of the way.
Fridge Connection & System Testing
We connect the line to your refrigerator’s inlet, slowly restore water, check all accessible joints for leaks, and test the fridge’s water and ice functions (as allowed by the fridge’s setup time and instructions).
Cleanup, Documentation & Care Tips
We tidy up the work area, push the fridge back carefully while watching the line, and provide notes on where the shutoff is, how the line is routed, and what to watch for. You’ll also get simple tips on filter changes and periodic leak checks.
What’s Included
On-site evaluation of the fridge location, nearby plumbing, and any existing water line
Design and selection of a safe routing path and shutoff valve location for the fridge line
Installation or replacement of the refrigerator water line and associated shutoff valve
Secure routing and penetration work through cabinets or walls as needed
Connection and testing of the line at the refrigerator inlet for leaks and basic function
Written notes and guidance on shutoff location, filter use, and what to monitor over time
Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Many refrigerator water line installations and replacements can be completed in a single visit, especially when access is straightforward.
You receive clear, upfront pricing after we’ve seen the kitchen layout, available water source, and route complexity—before any cutting or line installation.
Costs depend on distance from water source to fridge, need for new shutoff valves, type of tubing and fittings used, and whether we’re repairing a leak, replacing a line, or doing a completely new run.
Every project includes a line-item estimate breaking out diagnostic, line installation, valve work, and any additional recommended repairs (like replacing old angle stops or correcting other under-sink issues).
Insurance & Claims Help
Leaking fridge lines are a common source of hidden water damage:
We can document the condition of the old line/valve, where it leaked, and what we did to repair or replace it.
Our detailed invoices can help an adjuster understand the plumbing cause of cabinet, floor, or wall damage.
(Coverage and claim decisions always depend on your specific insurer and policy; this is not financial or legal advice.)
Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)
Hidden floor and wall damage: Slow leaks from fridge lines often soak subflooring and wall cavities before you notice.
Mold and odors: Enclosed spaces behind and under fridges are ideal for musty smells and possible mold growth.
Sudden line failure: Old plastic or copper lines can burst unexpectedly, causing significant water damage in a short time.
Appliance issues: Poor water pressure or unreliable supply can impact ice production and water dispenser performance.
Hard-to-access shutoffs: Relying on old or buried saddle valves makes emergency shutoffs slower and more stressful.
Methods, Materials & Quality Standards
Proper shutoff valves: We use code-appropriate shutoff valves in accessible locations, not hidden or sketchy taps.
Quality tubing: Use of durable, manufacturer-appropriate water line materials rated for continuous use.
Secure routing: Lines are routed to minimize kinks, crushing, and accidental damage when the fridge is moved.
Code-conscious work: All connections and valves are installed following local plumbing codes in Clark County and surrounding areas.
Thorough leak checks: We test under pressure and visually check every accessible joint we’ve installed or worked on.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you add a water line if my fridge never had one before?
Yes—if there’s a nearby cold water source and reasonable routing path, we can usually install a new refrigerator water line for your ice maker and dispenser.
Is the flexible kit from the hardware store enough?
Some kits are better than others, but many DIY installs use cheap lines and saddle valves that are prone to failure. We use more robust, code-appropriate setups and secure routing.
Do you work on the fridge itself?
We handle the plumbing connections and line. If there’s an internal fridge problem (valve, control board, etc.), that may require an appliance technician, but we’ll help you determine which side the problem is on.
What if my existing shutoff valve doesn’t fully close?
We often recommend replacing old or unreliable shutoff valves while we’re installing or replacing the water line. It’s a good safety upgrade.
Will you need to cut holes in my cabinets or walls?
Sometimes small, neat holes are needed to route the line safely. We’ll explain where and why before doing any cutting.
