Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
An air gap protects your dishwasher against
water backing up into it if a drain clogs. The
air gap is not a port of the dishwasher.It is
not covered by your warranty. Not all
plumbing codes require air gaps,so you may
not hove one. If the air gap gets clogged,the
dishwasher will not drain. Cleon the air gap
if the dishwasher will not drain.
Theair gap is easy to clean.
