I have a dishwasher and garbage disposal unit and I want to add an under
sink osmosis filter.
The washer pumps out to some sort of vacuum break. The garbage disposal
also has connexion to the break.
Is it possible to eliminate or reroute those connexions and use that break
fitting hole in the sink for the osmosis filter output?
Would make life simple.
Thank you,

No, the air gap is to keep water from the garbage disposal from
siphoning back into the dish washer.
