Counter-top (Portable) Dishwasher Complete Installation Guide and Walkthrough (Bänkdiskmaskin).

[@russelhazzard7089]

I've been thinking of getting a desktop dishwasher, but due to my ignorance of how they're plumbed in I've yet to get one. Now that I've watched this short video I'm surprised at how simple a process it is to set one up. I rent my flat and I was under the assumption that the pipe work would have to be placed down the back like a regular dishwasher. HOW WRONG I WAS! Thank you, this video has helped a great deal.

Throwing salt in is awesome, I'm glad you said that. I just ordered one of these and it will be here in a few days. I have been worried because we have hard water where I live. I know salt is used as a water softener, but I didnt think to put salt in the dishwasher. Thank you for saying that part

For those who asking what type of faucet is this, after many search i can tell you it's a sweden faucet with dishwasher shut off. The sweden name is diskmaskinsavstängning blandare

[@johnhoover7869]

I really like the countertop option. You don't have to be bending over all time. You wash dishes in smaller quantities so you don't need such a large stock in your cabinets. I recapture the hot water and use it to clean and disinfect my whole house and autos.

[@coffeepot3123]

I will ask my landlord for that backside fitting etc you have on your kitchen faucet. (the least and first thing my landlord will have to do) Because a garden hose fitting has a smell to it from the internal rubber washer, and i feel like i'd get cancer or something drinking water using that fitting hahaha. Anyways, Thanks for the review!.

Hello thanks for this video. Im looking into getting a tabletop dishwasher and came across your video. And what was really nice with your setup was how your dishwasher gets fresh waster. If you dont mind, could you please let me know which water tap it is you are using? Or whether if it was a diverter valve installed below your water tap please?

[@iamsurebabydoll]

I don’t understand, if I connect it to the end of the tap & turn on the water and run the 2 hr program, is the water from my tap going to be running for 2 hours? Isn’t this wasteful/expensive?

[@surajjuthi5314]

@@iamsurebabydoll Good question, and thanks for commenting! I think firstly that the machine will use the same amount of water no matter where it is connected, so either the tap or any other part of the water line, so no getting around that I am afraid. The other thing is that usually machines like this just pull in a bit of water and try to use it as well as possible to clean, and then pull in some to clear the dishes off so it is not continuously pulling water. You can kind of hear the water being sucked in a few times and it will try to be as efficient as possible. I hope that answered your questions!

[@bradleephilp1259]

No different to how your washing machine would be hooked up. The tap is on during the 2 hour cycle but water isn't continuously flowing. The intensive wash cycle usually goes, pre rinse, main wash, rinse, rinse then dry. It'll only take the water required for each wash/rinse when it's time in the cycle

[@salamosta9256]

Hi, Great video. would you be able to send me the code for the tap and the connector as I couldn't find them in Sydney stores

[@vixxcelacea2778]

We talked to our landlord about this and for us, installing directly to the faucet output will cause damage. We have a thing at the back of the faucet like you do, but can't for the life of us figure out the name of the connection thread to connect it to the table top dishwasher. If anyone knows the name in Swedish please help. All I find are connections directly to the output of water which the faucets are not built to withstand pressure wise.

No it only uses 6-10 liters of water in most wash cycles! Much less than washing by hand. The water is mostly circulated and splashed via the rotary arm to dishes during the wash cycle.

[@GreenlifeFin]

For safety, you don’t want to burden the thing that is handling the pressure and giving water to the machine when it needs it. The same as with clothes washing machines. To avoid water leaking and huge damage, if something goes wrong. Also never leave any washing machines alone, always stay home when they wash.

[@giulioambrogi5413]

Hey, could you clarify this: if i have the inlet adapter connected to the faucet. Turned the little switch on. Do I also need to open the cold water from the normal handle? Thanks

[@dopedrums]

No you don't, those are two separate inlets. The "normal handle" goes to the sink and the "little switch" goes to a dishwasher of any kind and model. As soon as you turn the "little switch" on you have flowing water from that source. It's better to go the "little switch" route as you'll be able to use your faucet like normal whilst the dishwasher is doing its thing. If you connect your dishwasher directly to your faucet you'll have to wait for your dishwasher to finish before you can access your water which can be irritating if you have to cook food or just want a glass of water.

[@giulioambrogi5413]

@@dopedrums sorry i didn't explain myself well. In my case the little switch sits at a faucet level, not where it is in the video. It's a T connector applied to the faucet. So in my case i had to turn on the water in order to reach the faucet, and then turn the little switch too. Hope it makes sense
