I was hoping to install my icemaker semi-soon but have read on here that the saddle valves provided with the kits are prone to failure. If I was indeed to put a T off a line, is the main line coming into the house alright (I know from reading on these forums that the pressure will be fine going from 1/2" to the tiny 1/4" because it's stronger) The main line comes in and basically runs straight over and turns beneath the fridge, going over towards the water heater, and there is already a line ran to this location (the previous owner ran the line, but did not connect it).
Additionally, are the sharkbite connectors alright for simplicity, or should I sweat the T onto the run?
Thanks,
Matt
