Prepare
Drain
Plumbing
Follow local codes and ordinances.
Dishwasher drain hose must not exceed 10
feet in length for proper drainage.
The dishwasher is supplied with a 1/2" I.D.
drain hose, 78" long. Add up to 42" length
to the factory supplied hose if necessary.
Dishwasher must be connected to waste line
with an air gap (not supplied) or 32" mini-
mum, high drain loop (depending on local
codes and ordinances) to prevent back flow
into the dishwasher.
An air gap must be used if waste tee or
disposer connection is less than 18" above
floor to prevent siphoning.
Install waste tee or disposer and air gap
according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Cut a hole in cabinet wall, approximately
1-1/2" in diameter for drain hose.
When installing two dishwashers side-by-side,
place drain hoses and air gaps as shown.
Follow the same installation instructions as
for single dishwasher.
Note:
Each dishwasher must have a separate drain hose as
shown.
Double
Dishwashers
An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain
hose is connected to waste tee or disposer
lower than 18" above the floor level.
Failure to provide the proper drain
connection height, 18", with air gap or 32"
minimum high drain loop will result in
improper draining of the dishwasher which
may cause damage.
Method 1 – Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer
Use this method when waste tee or disposer connection is less
than 18" above the floor.
Method 2 – High Drain Loop
with Waste Tee or Disposer
Use this method when high drain loop is at least 32" above the
floor.
• Provide a method to attach drain hose to
underside of countertop. Attachment will be
made in later step.
