I Personally like to use armed hoses between a wall water outlet to all equipment. The hose take up vibrations that especially copper does not like or worse cracks by time. On service calls it so much easier to pull the equipment out to get access to the rear side. Wash machine as the most common for me, have inlet valves on the rear side, To pull whatever water consumers out of base is a must in many cases. You made a clean and great filter set up.
Hmmmm….what about when unit needs to get service and for some reason it needs to get moved those lines are not going to help and they’re going to have to get cut, not a very smart move or thinking there
I wouldve used a washing machine hose on the functioning ice machine & I would’ve capped the filter outlet to the disabled ice machine, if someone puts something on top of that ice machine & it falls behind it could open that ball valve
I would have probably got the sticker off the pipe and used rubbing alcohol to get rid of the glue and damn that sucks you had to use a slip coupling but happens
Just gonna say here I dont like putting filters on ice machines. unless u got something that is gonna remove odors or excessive chlorine or big chunks of stuff coming in. Most ice machine owners dont change them at the regular and they become a nuisance problem!!. proper cleaning of ice machines every 3 months is much better than any filter could be. if the customer was vigalant about changing filters I would be ok with that but most are not. here in CO we have decent water so thats where my info comes from, but that filter will sit there till the ice machine doesnt work and then you will be called to change it. ice machines are designed to remove scale and minerals with the pump out cycle. unless my customer is hell bent on having a filter I remove them

Good call
Why no union where it connects to the ice machine. If the machine needs to be pulled out for any reason now you have to cut the pipe.
Good call
No need to clean behind
Like others have said a hose connection to allow movement or replacement, what no bracket on the piping?
Why did you choose to run a solid line into the ice maker? Would a hose not been better so that you could move the unit away from the wall if needed.
The original copper supply surely looked small to me. Nice work!

Why won’t you fix the other one
Too many issues and it has broke down many times in the past. They decided to install a new unit there for security. Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
Legit!
phosphate ?
😻💚💜💚
Using a pro press here is just obnoxious. And why only one filter per unit if it’s a kitchen?
