Option: Ice-maker Connection
If you want to connect product water from the RO to your ice-maker, you will need:
xOne T-fitting, preferably the quick-connect type fitting
xExtra 1/4" tubing long enough to go from the RO system to your ice-maker
xOptional: One shut-off valve, preferably the quick-connect type.
See Fig.13. Before connecting the product water line from Point Z to H, add a T-fitting between point Z
to H to divert product water to both the ice-maker and the faucet.
Using RO for Ice-maker only:
If you want the RO to feed your ice-maker (fridge) only, you should still connect the RO faucet as a
2nd outlet. This allows you to drain the tank, flush new filters through the faucet rather than through
your icemaker line. You can hang the faucet by the system and not mount it.
Option: Multiple Outputs - Add Shut Off Valve:
If your RO is feeding several output points (icemaker, fridge, bathroom), you should add a Shut-Off
valve to each output line (except the RO spigot line). This way, if you ever need to diagnose a problem
in the system, you can easily shut off these lines to isolate the water flow for accurate troubleshooting.
