All drain systems must be vented to prevent an air lock and to
prevent siphoning.
Refer to Figure 15 .
IMPORTANT: Machines must be installed in accord-
ance with all local codes and ordinances.
If proper drain size is not available or practical, a surge tank is
required. A surge tank along with a sump pump should be used
when gravity drainage is not possible.
Increasing the drain hose length, installing elbows, or causing
bends will decrease drain flow rate and increase drain times, im-
pairing machine performance.

Refer to Table 16 for capacity-specific drain information.
NOTE: Installation of additional machines will require
proportionately larger drain connections. Refer to Table
17 .
IMPORTANT: Do not block the machine overflow open-
ing.
If water or suds flow from the machine overflow vent and the
machine has been verified to be operating properly with proper
water levels and correct amount of laundry chemicals, a drain
line or an extension may be added to the machine overflow vent
and routed to a drain trough.
1. To build a drain line, route the drain pipe from the machine
overflow vent to a drain trough. As an option, the drain pipe
can instead be routed straight across or down and be suspen-
ded above drain trough by at least 3 inches [76 mm].
2. To build an extension to the overflow vent, secure a section of
drain pipe to the vent, facing upward, that extends no higher
than the recommended height above the edge of the vent el-
bow. Refer to Figure 17 and Table 15 .
