PREPARE DRAIN PLUMBING

Drain Requirements

• Drain hose must not exceed 10 feet in length.

• A high drain loop or air gap is required. See below.

Drain Method

The tgpe of drain installation depends on the following:

• Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?

• Iswaste tee less than 18" above the floor?

If the answer to either question is yes, an air gap must be used.

Referto Method 1 (Figure C)in the adjacent illustrations.

If both answers are no, either an air gap or high drain loop mag

be used. Refer to Method 1 (Figure C)or Method 2 (Figure D)

in the adjacent illustrations

NOTE: Drain hose elevation must not exceed 48".

Special consideration for a dishwasher installed on

a elevated platform

Ifthe dishwasher isinstalled on an elevated platform, a high

drain loop of at least 32" above the platform must be provided

in addition to the air gap or drain loop requirement determined

above. This is necessmrgfor proper drain performance.

CAUTION

An air gap MUSTBEUSEDif 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 with

an air gap or 32" minimum, high drain loop will result in

improper draining of the dishwasher, which may cause

damage.
