RO Refrigerator and Ice Maker Lines in New Orleans, LA

Clear ice and better tasting fridge water are the main reasons people run their RO system to the refrigerator. It works well when the line is set up right and poorly when it is not.

The issue is pressure. An RO tank delivers water at a fraction of house pressure, and that pressure drops as the tank empties. Many refrigerator inlet valves want 20 psi or more to fill the ice tray properly. A long run from the sink to a fridge across the room loses pressure on the way, and you end up with small, hollow cubes.

Bear Water Purification connects New Orleans, LA homeowners with plumbers who run a dedicated 1/4 inch line with its own shut-off, tee it after the post-filter, and bypass the fridge's built-in filter so the water is not run through carbon twice. Where pressure is marginal, the fix is a permeate pump or a delivery pump, not a bigger tank.

Old copper ice maker lines get swapped for food-grade polyethylene, since RO water slowly eats at copper.

Reverse osmosis FAQs

Questions about reverse osmosis system installation

Questions we hear most often about RO Refrigerator and Ice Maker Lines in New Orleans, LA.

Talk to a real person
How often should RO filters be changed?
Sediment and carbon prefilters usually need changing every 6 to 12 months. The membrane typically lasts two to four years, and a TDS meter tells you when it is due.
Is RO water safe to drink without minerals?
Yes. Most of the minerals you take in come from food, not water. A remineralization cartridge can add calcium and magnesium back if you prefer the taste.
Why does my RO water taste bad all of a sudden?
A spent carbon post-filter, a storage tank that needs sanitizing or a worn membrane are the common causes. Filter changes and a tank sanitize clear up most taste complaints.
How do I know if my RO membrane needs replacing?
Compare a TDS reading from the regular tap with one from the RO faucet. If the membrane is removing less than about 80 to 85 percent of dissolved solids, it is time to replace it.
Do I need UV with my reverse osmosis system?
On treated city water, usually not. On a private well, a cistern or after a positive bacteria test, a UV stage adds protection that RO alone does not give.
