Fridge Installation

Professional Fridge Installation Services

Buying a new fridge for the house can certainly be an exciting experience. The thrill of visualising the space where it will fit in the kitchen, thinking about its features, and opening the door to stock it with food and beverages for the first time is undeniable. But while picking out a new fridge might be fun, the installation process can be daunting. Especially if the fridge comes with advanced features like ice makers that require a connection to the water line.

But there’s no need to shut the doors on your refrigerator upgrade plans. At Metropolitan Plumbing, we offer fridge installation services that are smooth, hassle-free, and professionally managed from start to finish. Whether you want to replace an old unit or get your first refrigerator installed, we’re your go-to service specialist.

Why Would You Need A Plumber To Install Your Fridge?

At this point, you might be thinking, “Why on earth would I need a plumber to install a fridge? Surely you move it into place, flick the switch at the wall and let it do what it does best?”

If you haven’t bought a new fridge in a while, most fridges come with a raft of exciting features and benefits these days. They include all the bells and whistles, like a water dispenser and ice maker/dispenser. And you’ll need the expertise of a licensed plumber to connect your new fridge freezer to your mains water supply.

Why You Will Need Professional Installation Over DIY

Thinking of installing your new refrigerator on your own? Perhaps put that plan on ice! As we know, if your fridge has features that require access to your mains water supply, you’ll need a licensed plumber for that. Here’s why:

• It’s required by law: Across Australia, it’s illegal for unlicensed people to carry out regulated plumbing work. Any work from the water main that connects to plumbing fixtures in the home falls under this category.
• Safety first: Installing a new appliance involves a lot of technicalities, from ensuring proper ventilation for the cooling mechanism to connecting the electrical cord safely.
• Water supply connection: In many cases these days, there’s more to installing refrigerators than just simply plugging them in. If your fridge freezer has an ice maker, it needs to be connected to the water supply. Handling the water supply line incorrectly can lead to leaks, causing more damage.
• Time-saving: Leave the heavy lifting to us! Instead of spending a few hours or even the entire day figuring out the installation guide, have a professional do it in a fraction of the time.

The legalities regarding DIY plumbing work may slightly vary depending on which state or territory you live in. But if you need to connect your appliance to your water supply, you’ll need to contact a plumber.

Step-by-Step Installation Process

With any complete refrigerator installation, we follow a thorough process to ensure your new appliance is installed properly, safely and securely.

1. Preparation: We start by determining the ideal installation location. This involves ensuring enough space for the refrigerator doors to swing open, easy access for the power point and for the fridge to stand upright.
2. Moving the refrigerator: Using tools like a hand truck, we carefully move the old fridge freezer out and the new refrigerator upright without damaging it, the wall or the floors.
3. Connection: For fridges with ice and water dispensers, we connect them to the water line.
4. Final adjustments: We adjust the refrigerator’s temperature, shelves, and drawers to suit your preferences and the manufacturer’s specific instructions.

Whether your new fridge is replacing an existing refrigerator or it’s your first, we’ll ensure it’s ready to go and fully functional with zero complications or hassle.
