You can still use that type of tap, but you will need a "lock - in" adaptor plus a fridge shank. Andale can help you with both. I will find my camera and take some pics soon of what you will need.

A lot of people use that type of tap as Sully says, you just need the correct anchoring points. If you were buying / starting from stratch, there is a one piece fridge tap unit (can't find a photo but they are regularly advertised on eBay) that is easier to install and pretty much the default choice now for that type of tap.

I've got both types on two different fridges and each works as good as the other.

Go to the Andale site for pictures and their catalogue, or better still, ask someone to come and help you !

No probs

Yep, thats it.


to make it a bit more classy looking, get one of those chrome disks they use behind the shower head where it comes out of the wall, and use that between the nut on the shank and fridge. cuppla bucks from bunnings and it finishes it off just a bit nicer.
