DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
• Follow local codes and ordinances.
• Do not exceed 10 feet distance to drain.
• To prevent back flow into the dishwasher, connect
drain line to an air gap or use a 30” high drain loop,
depending on local codes.
• Air gap must be used when waste tee or disposer
connection is less than 18” above the floor to prevent
siphoning.

questions.
■■ Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?
■■ Will waste tee or disposer connection be less than 18”
above the floor?
■■ Will installation have a high drain loop less than 30”
above the floor?
If the answer to ANY of these questions is YES, Method 1
MUST be used.
• If all answers are NO, either method may be used.
Method 1 – Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer

connection is less than 18” from the floor.

nected to a waste tee or disposer lower than 18” above
the floor level.

an air gap or a 30” min. high drain loop will result in
improper draining of the dishwasher which may cause
damage or poor wash performance.

Il DOIT Y AVOIR une coupure antirefoulement si le
tuyau de vidange est branché sur un raccord d’égout ou
un broyeur d’ordures à moins de 46␣ cm (18 po) du sol.
• Si la vidange n’est pas branchée correctement en
utilisant une coupure antirefoulement ou un boucle
d’égout d’au moins 76 cm (30 po) de haut,
l’écoulement de l’eau du lave-vaisselle n’est pas bon,
ce qui peut causer des dommages ou un mauvais
lavage de la vaisselle.
