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 ¼ “ tubing long enough to go from the RO system to your ice-maker
x 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 near
point H to divert product water to both the ice-maker and the faucet. It is best open the line to
the ice maker after the first tank has been discarded and the 2nd tank has completely filled.
