DRAIN CONNECTIONS
Eurotech provides a 3/4” (19 mm) ID corrugated drain hose with a drain line holder to form a high loop.
NOTE: Do not use any fittings anywhere in the drain line that are less than 3/4" (19 mm) OD. Stock. The access hole for the drain line should be
The high loop is necessary for proper draining and should be located as close to the dishwasher as possible.
There are three ways to connect the drain supply line, as shown in the illustrations at right:
A)Typical connection to sink plumbing before trap (high loop drain)
B)Connection to air gap then to the trap.
C)Connection to waste disposer with air gap
NOTE: Don’t forget to remove the knockout or plug from the disposer fitting.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT DRAIN
CONNECTIONS:
←Failure to provide the proper drain connection height (minimum of 20" (508 mm)) above the bottom of the dishwasher base) or a 20" (508 mm) high loop will result in improper drainage, which will damage the machine.
←No part of the drain hose should be higher than 35" (889 mm) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
←The hose must not be drawn straight to a floor well or its
equivalent because it might function as a siphon and empty the machine.
←The drain hose can be extended to a maximum length of 10 feet (3048 mm). Joints and jointed tubes, if any, must have a minimum 3/4" (19 mm) OD.Stock.
←If the drain line is going to be connected to a waste disposer,
be sure to remove the knockout or plug from the fitting on the disposer before connecting the drain line.
When the installation is ready, open the supply valve and let the pressure act for a while. Then check that all connections are tight and there are no leaks.
