Hi,
Currently in the planning stages of my new kitchen. Im planning to install a dishwasher but the only place I can relocate it is quite a distance from the current drain outlet. Ive got a U-shaped kitchen and the dishwaster would need to be situated opposite the sink. The sink currently has the washing machine under the drainer and this plumbs easily into the waste from the sink. The waste pipe run from the proposed dishwasher location would be around 3.5mtrs to 4mtrs. So, questions a - Can the dishwasher pump water out? - Could I set up a waste pipe behind kitchen units to connect into the main waste? - Presumably this pipe would need to have a drop on it of x amount over its distance? - Could the dishwaster effectively 'lift' water from its drain up to the level of this pipe to allow it to then run (via gravity) to the main drain? - Would all of my wastes (sink, washing machine, dishwasher) connect into one u-bend or is it acceptable to have more than one? Thanks in advance, CM. |
