Welcome to the World Of Tomorrow, where fridges suffer certificate errors. Just like everything else

Re: @Nick Kew

Or how about, take your existing 'fridge.

10l water carrier with tap £10

small float valve £6.40

a self-cutting isolating valve £5 (tidier methods are available)

a short length of flexible pipe and necessary inserts £2.10 & £3.20

a flat wood bit £3 (it'll get through the plastic lining and the insulation easily, and the external metal is thin enough that it should manage one hole - many fridges don't have metal at the back but you will have to be careful to avoid the radiators)

and a short flexible tap connector

Seal the hole with silicone when you're done (wouldn't advise expanding foam) and Bob's yer uncle for around £30.

I'm tempted to try it myself. Not sure how the rest of the family will take to me drilling holes in the side of our fridge though...
