Drain Specifications

■■ For proper drainage, the drain line connection must be a minimum of 20” (50.8 cm) above the bottom of the dishwasher. No part of the drain hose can be lower than the disposer or waste tee connection or higher than 35” (88.9 cm) from the bottom of the dishwasher.

■■ The drain hose supplied with the dishwasher must be connected to a minimum 1/2” inside

diameter drain connection. The drain hose is equipped with a cone-shaped connector on

the end that is ready to be cut to the desired drain connection size. Only a clamp (not provided) is required. It fits drain connections with an internal diameter of 1/2, 5/8, 3/4 and 7/8 inches (1.3, 1.6, 1.8 and 2.2 cm).

■■ Should a drain hose longer than the one provided be required, use a hose extension approved for detergents and high temperature water.

■■ Total drain hose length (including factory installed hose) must not exceed 10 feet. (304.8 cm) from the top of the drain loop on the back of the unit. Joints and joint tubes must have a minimum inside diameter of 7/8” (2.2 cm).

■■ Install an air gap in the drain system if required by local codes. Plan the air gap location on the countertop area adjacent to the dishwasher. A section of drain hose (not provided) needs to be installed from the air gap to the drain connection.

■■ If an air gap is not required, the drain hose must be installed to a disposer inlet or waste tee above the drain trap in the household plumbing.
