refrigerator water dispenser is not working

Marc Shin
Posted

Hello - i have a 1br 1 ba STR and the refrigerator is not hooked up to the water line so the water dispenser does not work. I do not want to pay a plumber to do the plumbing for this work.

Should I provide my guests with bottled water or a Brita water filter or leave it up to the guests to bring their own water?

I would probably replace the fridge or pay a plumber. No matter what you do I think you are going to have guests point out that something isn’t working which could lead to annoyance or requests for refunds or bad reviews.

Plus, providing bottled water over the long term probably isn’t going to save you much money compared to paying a plumber to get the fridge connected.
