New installations require specific components like strain relief for electrical connections and a T connection for the garden hose. The hot water line must be a minimum of 3/8 inches in copper. Electrical cable or power cord is necessary, as outlined in the electrical requirements section. The dishwasher must be installed with the drain hose no longer than 10 feet for proper drainage. It is designed to be enclosed on the top and both sides by a standard residential kitchen cabinet unit. The installation enclosure must be clean and free of obstructions. Minimum dimensions for the enclosure are 24 inches wide, 25 inches deep, and 34 inches high. To ensure the front door of the dishwasher is flush with the countertop, the countertop must be 25 inches deep.

A minimum clearance of 25.63 inches is needed from the front of the dishwasher for door operation. Drain requirements must adhere to local codes and ordinances. The drain hose should not exceed 10 feet in length. Do not connect drain lines from other devices to the dishwasher drain hose. An air gap or a minimum 32-inch drain loop is necessary to prevent backflow into the dishwasher. An air gap is required if the waste tee or garbage disposal connection is less than 18 inches above the floor. Drain installation depends on local code requirements regarding air gaps. Consider the height of the waste tee or garbage disposal connection when planning installation. If any specific conditions are met, Method 1 for drain preparation must be used.
  • Page 6: Installation requirements include the necessity of an air gap if the drain hose is connected to a waste tee or garbage disposal lower than 18 inches above the floor.

The hole must be free of sharp edges. If the cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing or rubber grommet. Cable direct connections may pass through the same hole as the drain hose and hot water line, but power cords with plugs must pass through a separate hole.
