Review: easily amended an existing/abandoned, refrigerator water line and filtration setup. - Our house had an in-basement, POU, water filtration assy that was left here by the previous owners. Recognizing that much of what they did was hacked together, we haven't utilized any portion of that setup until last week, after replacing our 13+ yr old kitchen refrigerator/freezer, this unit having both ice-maker and inside unit water dispenser. Since the previous filtration utilized the universally despised saddle-valve, and the copper plumbing both sourcing house water supply and feeding then 1/4" soft copper up through the floor to the refrigerator, I knew I'd need to cut out the portion of 1/2" copper supply (part of the untreated run feeding outdoor spigots) pierced by the long-frozen up (deposits) valve, and either solder in a new valve (I can and do solder, but the space available to do so in an existing supply line was TIGHT) or make use of something like a SharkBite fitting. The challenge was acquiring a valve that accommodated the less-typical sizing and layout of a tee, 1/2"x1/2" throughput and a 1/4" ball valve controlled tap. I'm disinclined to use plastic parts, generally and specific to this project, and after discovering this valve wasn't available locally, found myself on desertcart poking around. This valve, while looking like a toilet or sink valve, is working perfectly for our needs. I was able to remove all of the space-hogging, abandoned and unused POU filtration, turned off the main water supply, cut out a portion of the supply line, cleaned and deburred the same, and popped this tee into the supply. The existing 1/4" copper was then tested by restoring water pressure, placing the refrigerator side copper into a 5gal bucket, and opening slightly this tee valve to see both what flushed out and if any leaks or line breaks showed. As it worked out, it did flush out some particulates (we're on well water) but those were minimal and soon the bucket was half-full of clean, cold water. When I emptied the bucket and moved to a full-pressure test, I found the existing 1/4" line from basement valve to kitchen fridge had a pinhole that must've been blocked by particulates, but blew out under full pressure. Simply used the quarter turn ball-valve in this SharkBite assy, shut off water to that 1/4" line, marked the pinhole, cut the line, cleaned and deburred the same, and installed a brass coupler at the end, from which I ran enough coil of the appropriate poly line the fridge manufacturer recommended for the water feature connection, and screwed a single cable clamp into a stud behind the fridge to secure the copper line, while providing an anchor point for the coupler and the poly coil such that there is enough slack to allow the fridge to be pulled forward into the kitchen for rear access, but then coils back into into the poly-line memory when sliding the fridge back into its space. We're now a few weeks into this setup and it's working perfectly! My wife has water and ice at the fridge, there are no leaks, and I can cross something else off of the honey-do list. Worth noting that SharkBite fittings are rated for permanent installations, and as long as you're careful to accurately measure insertion depths, square your line cuts, clean and deburr the ends that get pushed into the SharkBite, they just work. Make sure you look at any fittings before installing. I made the mistake of buying some NPT SharkBite fittings, "used like new" from desertcart, and they looked like they were tossed into a rock quarry. You're going to want to ensure your SharkBite fittings have straight, unbent teeth inside the push-portion, as that's how/where the fitting "bites" into the inserted supply line. Would also recommend, if you're using copper supply and NOT PEX, buy the SharkBite that don't have the stiffener insert required for PEX, as that appears to reduce the port size, which would somewhat reduce flow and perhaps create some turbulence.
Review: SharkBite fitting - Item is as described. Worked perfectly. Great fitment and great quality. I am very satisfied with. A little more expensive than I prefer, but works as designed

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SharkBite fitting
*by N***. on January 3, 2026*

Item is as described. Worked perfectly. Great fitment and great quality. I am very satisfied with. A little more expensive than I prefer, but works as designed

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for Low Fridge Water Dispenser Flow. 5 Stars
*by K***E on January 3, 2026*

Worked like a charm. Install took less that 20 minutes. I as others had the pitiful water flow from my in fridge water dispenser due to a very old and suspect/sketchy saddle valve. I did the research and found this gem. Showed up and just followed a couple YT videos to make sure I had the cuts right on the cold water line. I used the little yellow SharkBite deburring/marking tool as well, but sandpaper or steel wool would have been fine as well to clean up the copper pipe. Totally 5 stars and HIGHLY recommended if you have poor flow to your fridge water dispenser.
