Why use a licensed tradie for your fridge water connection?
Plumbed fridges need a properly installed water line, isolation valve and pressure control to work reliably. Quick DIY kits and garden hoses can leak behind cupboards, cause water damage and in some cases void your warranty.
A professional installation gives you a neat, hidden water line, correct fittings and a shut off valve where you can reach it. That way your ice maker and water dispenser work properly without risking hidden leaks in your kitchen.
- Correctly installed water line to your fridge location
- Accessible isolation valve so you can turn the water off easily
- Pressure control to protect the fridge and hoses where required
- Neat pipework run through cupboards or wall cavities where possible
- Reduced risk of hidden leaks and water damage behind the fridge

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you install a water line for any fridge with ice and water?
- Yes. As long as the fridge has a suitable water connection and meets Australian standards, we can install a compatible water line and valve. We will check the manufacturer requirements before connecting.
Do I need a plumber to install my fridge water line?
- Fridge water connections must be made to your home plumbing system, so a licensed plumber is required. DIY kits can cause leaks and may not meet local regulations or manufacturer guidelines.
What if my fridge is on a wall with no nearby water?
-
In many homes we can run a small water line from a sink, laundry or other cold water point on the same level. We will inspect access in cupboards, under floors or in roof spaces and explain what is possible and what it will cost.
Will you drill through cabinets or walls to get the water to the fridge?
- Where required we can carefully drill through the backs or sides of cupboards and walls to run the line in the neatest way possible. We will discuss the route with you before any holes are made.
What happens during a fridge water installation?
- We identify a suitable cold water source and isolation point, then install a valve and run a new water line to the fridge location. We connect the line to the fridge, turn the water on, check for leaks and test the dispenser and ice maker. Once everything is working, we show you where the valve is and how to turn the water off if needed.
