Question:

Correct fittings for water filtration system to ice maker?

Howdy,I installed a Watts-Premier reverse osmosis water filtration system this past weekend. So far, it all works finehowever I'd like to connect my ice maker to it. The water filtration using 1/4 tubing with those push-in Quick Connect fittings. And my ice maker already has a 1/4 stainless steel flexible supply line running to the fridge.Watts recommends not using copper fittings or piping with a reverse osmosis system, so I need to stick to plastic connections. I went to OSH this morning and found a brand of fittings called EZCON-X. I had no problem finding a tee and an inline valve to split the reverse osmosis supply line and add a shutoff switch. But the problem I'm having is finding a way to connect that to the ice maker line. The tee has a 1/4 male threaded end, but the 1/4 female end on the ice maker line is too small.So any suggestions as to what I should be looking for? How does one easily connect stainless steel tubing to a plastic connector?Thanks!

Answer:

you can get door locks for your s10 at autoparts stores if one doesnt have them, then try another store. the part number is DL15250 there made by lock works there owned by borg warner which makes after market replacement parts for many vechicles. and they come in either black or chrome. or if you cant find any one who can get them and your old ones are in good working condition try a lock smith and just have the rekeyed.
