Disposer Installation without Air Gap
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).
You must install an air gap in the drain system
if required by local codes. Plan for the air
gap in the sink or countertop area adjacent to
the dishwasher. A section of drain hose (not
provided) needs to be installed from the air gap
to the waste disposer inlet or waste tee.
If an air gap is not required, the drain hose must
be installed to a disposer inlet or waste tee above
the sink trap in the household plumbing.
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.
