Many people drink filtered or bottled water for years and then realize that if they use ice or cold water from their refrigerator that it isn't filtered. Many refrigerators don't come with a water filter for the ice or the water that is dispensed from the this much-used kitchen appliance. However, all of the major appliance companies make separate water filters for their refrigerators. In fact, they even make hoses and other attachments that let you hook your refrigerator up to an under sink water filter.
Depending upon the model of your refrigerator and also how your kitchen is laid out, your local plumber will have different solutions to make sure that the cold water and ice that your refrigerator dispenses is filtered and pure.
George Salet Plumbing can install almost any filter that can make the water from your ice maker or even hot water dispenser pure and safe to drink. This is one of the smaller jobs that we do, but it is still an important one. In most cases, a small filter can be attached to your ice maker line. Most major appliance manufacturers make these kind of filters, including GE and Whirlpool.
There are almost as many kinds of water filters as there are refrigerators, so picking the right one and having it professionally installed is easier than you might think. In fact, most brands of water filters for refrigerators are interchangeable with almost any brand or model.
We can also usually connect the ice maker to your under sink filter. This is accomplished by running a small hose from the refrigerator to the under sink filter attached to your sink. So, as you can see, there are many different ways to filter the water from your ice maker and your water that comes from your refrigerator.
