Dishwasher & Ice Maker Water Line Installation

Getting a new dishwasher or refrigerator? We’ll make sure it’s set up safely and done right.

At GPS Plumbing, we specialize in installing water lines for dishwashers and ice maker boxes—two small but critical components in your kitchen. Whether you’re moving in, remodeling, or simply upgrading your appliances, our licensed team will take care of the details so you don’t have to worry about future leaks or surprises behind the wall..

We install dishwashers and refrigerator water lines, but we do not repair appliances. If you’re swapping out your fridge or notice a leaking shut-off valve behind it, we’ll replace it with a code-compliant, long-lasting option. Planning a remodel? We’ll coordinate with your contractor to make sure everything lines up perfectly.

Dishwasher Water Line Services

Your dishwasher needs a secure, properly sized hot water supply line and a correctly installed drain line that meets local code. We ensure both are handled professionally. We provide:

  • Installation of hot water supply lines for new or relocated dishwashers
  • Proper drain connections with air gaps or high-loop configurations
  • Replacement of worn-out dishwasher valves or cracked supply tubing
  • onnection to shut-off valves for future service access

Tip: If your dishwasher keeps leaking or leaving standing water, it may be an issue with the drain line, not the appliance.

Refrigerator Ice Maker Box Services

Planning to install a new fridge with ice and water features? A refrigerator ice maker box is the safest and cleanest way to connect the water supply. We install:

  • Recessed wall boxes with quarter-turn shut-off valves
  • New water supply lines for refrigerators in remodels or new builds
  • Secure, leak-free fittings for copper or braided steel tubing

Note: We do not use piercing saddle valves as they are outdated and prone to failure—we install dedicated, code-compliant shutoff valves only.

When Should Water Lines Be Replaced?

  • You’re upgrading appliances or remodeling the kitchen
  • The shut-off valve behind your fridge is leaking or stuck
  • You see signs of corrosion on copper lines or kinks in flexible tubing
  • You’re moving into an older home and want to start fresh

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you hook up appliances I’ve already purchased?

Yes, we frequently connect new dishwashers and refrigerators supplied by our customers.

Do you install water lines during a kitchen remodel?

Absolutely. We can coordinate with your remodel team or appliance installer to ensure the plumbing is ready.

Is an ice maker box required?

It’s not always required, but it’s strongly recommended for safe shutoff access and a cleaner, more durable connection.

Do I need a plumber for a dishwasher install?

Yes. Dishwashers require both water and drain connections, and improper setup can lead to hidden water damage or code violations. Poor installation by an unqualified installer or handyman can also void the manufacturer’s warranty. Always hire a licensed plumber to ensure code compliance and long-term reliability.
