We have well water we do not drink or make ice with it , will this device hook to the ice maker ?

Yes. We use a three gallon jug that we keep under our kitchen sink. We ran the water line to the fridge so that we could use bottled water instead of our well water.

Yes it will hook to the ice maker. This system works great. It has worked without a problem and getting water and ice from bottled water is a lot better than the water we have here. You can hear the motor while it's pumping but I don't see it as a problem. Very easy to hook up. You shouldn't use a filter. Most manufactures have either a plug or in my case, I just had to take the filter out and it automatically bypassed it.

Yes It Will work. This is a pump that is going to be connected to a 5 galon water bottle and will pump water with enough presures to make ice.

Yes, we added a tee so we can have drinking water & ice and is working great.

Yes the pump connects to the water feed line. I have a through the door ice maker and water setup. The pump is connected to the one feed and it does both. Our fridge has a water filter and the pump manufacturer recommended a water tank kit they sell or replace the filter with a dummy plug. I didn't do either but the pump makes a stuttering sound filling the ice maker which I am sure will shorten the motor life. If you don't have a filter you shouldn't have this issue. The manufacturer has a PDF of the install manual online that might help with any other questions.

Yes. I purchased this for a new fridge w/ ice maker. It has been working flawlessly for almost 2 years. It also came with everything I needed to hook it up.

It attaches to the faucet directly and does not plug in. If you run cold water, you will get cold water. In fact, you should only run cold water according to manufacturer.

This requires a special fitting on the end of the faucet to connect to the pitcher. Water has to be under pressure for this system to work. So no unless you change your faucet, or can use another faucet for this.

I noticed just a little bit more of a flow now than without. Not enough for an icemaker. You will need a pressurized water tank, 5 gallon or bigger, like the one that comes with an RO system, that may help.

no pump is required. water pressure from your water source forces water into the icemaker where it freezes and is ultimately expelled as cubes when they are frozen. no water pump is used in the process at any time. the short answer is, no you will not need any kind of water pump.

It should work fine -- use the adapter to connect it to a waterline, otherwise someone will need to constantly be on the alert to fill the water reservoir. Also, if you have hard water, a filter should be considered.

I don't know. I use it all the time, this is my second one, couldn't really tell when it went out the water just tasted different. I haven't found a way to hook it only to cold water either.

IMO, the device allows water to drain out of any spigot and attached hose. This prevents freezing and any siphoning of water into a well. I don't see how it could do either of these functions if it were underwater. But I am not an expert.

May be a stupid question but did you connect to water line? Check the lever inside, it should be positioned down for ice

Kevin, this will work to connect the tap, but I am not sure about that filter?? NancLDR 509 5175 Pex 25-Foot Ice Maker Connector, 1/4-Inch COMP X 1/4-Inch COMP

All it has is an inlet that allow the water in to keep the system at a set pressure so the well will not kick on and off every few sec. It has an 1 1/2" pipe size for your hookup! No house connection. I hope this helps you

Yes you must use distilled water;ordinary faucet work works too. If you won't drink it don't put it in the machine.

Well, I don't have sand in my well water, so I am not able to say if it would. Actually, I took it off of the hose after one day, because it seems too expensive for what I purchased for.

No. That would require an input for both hot and cold water lines. This has only one input.

As a customer of Amazon your question was sent me as a purchaser of this products. This is the water inlet for your Ice maker, there are two. One with a water filter option, and this one without. I suggest you shut your water off and remove your to confirm this one matches. Dan

I think you can connect to both unless you have some special requirement on the ice maker, such as minimum pressure. I used to have a whole house RO system which fed two faucets and the fridge, so I'm using the existing hoses to the other two taps, and put the new system under the kitchen sink. So I'm feeding all 3 places. Seems to work fine! On installing, the only problem I had was me not shoving the hoses into their quick connect fittings deep enough to make the o-ring. So I battled leaks until I pushed them in more firmly.

You should be able to connect to any water source. May have to hook to hot and cold washer connections and put a coupler where you could control the temperature of the water.
