Plastic Tube - 5/16 Inch

The original tubing from LG was cut exactly to fit. Had to remove the water filter inside the refrigerator. It was just one screw, so it came off very easily. The tubing connected to the filter at the rear with a quick disconnect. Very easy swap out. The tubing is also connected to the pump (located at the bottom of the refrigerator behind the cover plate. Only needed to take off 6 screws and one screw that held the pump on. The tubing was also held on to the pump with a quick disconnect as well. The tubing is secured to the rear of the refrigerator by plastic clips and screws. This replacement was extremely easy to do.
