I am looking to purchase a CPR 102 (has two 1" bulkheads) I read that two are better than one, just in case one gets clogged there is still water flow. Do I need to run both lines into the fuge separately , or can I "Y" them together and if so what size should the pipe be that they merge to. The fuge I am going to get has 1" bulkheads. Doesn't make sense to go from two 1" into one 1".

Yes you can go down to one, depends on how much water your going to flow as to whether you'll need to go bigger, but 1.5-2" would ba safe I'm sure.

I would go with a 2" after the merge. Put a couple of unions in the line too so you can easily take it apart for the occasional cleaning. Also, I'd use drain fittings instead of schedule 40's. The drain elbows are round back and will flow much better...use the long radius elbows if you have enough room.
