advice before doing anything non-reversible.
Just a word of caution from somebody that had one for several
years: you might not be able to do that. The hose also acts as
an outlet for the waste water, and there's a pump in there that
might not be able to push that far.
Oh yeah, added (cough)feature from mine, hopefully yours won't
do the same thing: All of that pressure that they create in that
water hose played pure *hell* with the cartridge in my faucet.
I think I replaced it about every year because it started to
drip, and the cold side never want bad once in that whole time.
Well thanks, but, I won't have that problem, as the water drainage is
a completely separate (and very easily extendable hose).
