I have a copper tube feeding water to a humidifier; want to insert a small sol valve so I can turn it off remotely. Any suggestions

Electrically turn it on/off or manually?
Use the water line intended for an ice maker on a fridge. This semi-rigid tubing fits perfectly into these valves.

This one is even easier, it uses "shark bite" technology - just slip the neatly cut tubing into the valve body and give it a tug to set it in place. No tools.
