Great video ! Thank you I have a similar setup that’s leaking and decided to just replace the entire setup and start fresh.

Wish I'd seen this video much earlier in my attempts to install my new dishwasher. Makes it all seem simple to cut down the pipes to get everything to fit.

Sir this is an excellent teaching video - thank you - I just have one question: why not connect the dishwasher drain hose to the sink drain on the right since that's the main drain sink? Thank you.

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, I liked extending the hose rather than creating a tight loop. Check out more home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9?notRedirectToSDP=1&.

[@arthendrickson4860]

Shouldn't the dishwasher drain hose be above the sink drain baskets at some point to prevent water siphoning back into the dishwasher?

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, some manufacturers have a built in high loop on the side of the dishwasher and don't require a loop inside the cabinet. Check the manual for your model.

[@rivermcdonald1845]

@@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel I’m glad a read this. I have mine that drains into the sink but for some odd reason it’s spilling onto the counter tops and flooding everything. (We just moved into a newly renovated house) new appliances haven’t been tested yet. I’m going to check and see if I can make it drain below the sink. Might even use the opening in the sink for a reverse osmosis system if possible.

[@Jeremya74]

I just listening to a video that said he called 8 different dishwasher companies and asked them if you could substitute the loop that you put under the sink for the loop they put on the side of the dishwasher..5 companies got back with him and said DO NOT SUBSTITUTE on any of their washers..always put a loop under the sink..the loop on the side of the dishwasher is not a substitute

[@deandalley3607]

@@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel That is incorrect. That loop attached to the washer does not substitute for the required high loop.

[@deandalley3607]

@@Jeremya74 That is correct!

My dishwasher drainage hows has a black rubber fitting on it that won't come off. The problem is it has a 1" opening that fit the garbage disposal I removed, but the new pvc pipe has a 5/8" branch for the dishwasher hose, so it doesn't fit. Am I supposed to cut the black rubber piece off and buy one that fits both ends?

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, go to a hardware store or home center and have them help you with a dishwasher rubber coupling and a barb fitting to make the connection. Check out some home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9

[@Kube_Dog]

@@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel It's very kind of you to reply, but I figured out the branch comes in 7/8" and that's what I should have bought instead of a 5/8". The garbage disposal I removed was 7/8" where the dishwasher hose previously went into, so I know it will fit. Going to Home Depot tomorrow to exchange the 5/8 for a 7/8.

[@robertsmithjr.5839]

The forcefull flow of the dishwasher draining into the barb made my 1 1/2” tail piece come apart. What did I do wrong?

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, with plastic drain pipe, you need to make sure the nut is tightened securely. If it still moves, I would clean the pipe and replace the washers. Check out more home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9?notRedirectToSDP=1&.

[@jamiemelissa1740]

Can you cut the pipe with a sawsall instead?

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, yes, a fine blade will cut through smoothly. Check out some home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9?notRedirectToSDP=1&.

My dishwasher wasn't draining so i cleaned out the drain hose that connects under the sink. When re-connecting the hose and tightening the clamp i am getting leaking, any tips? Very frustrating i have tried different postilions and not overtightening the clamp. Any help would be appreciated.

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, is the end of the hose damaged from the clamp? Do you have enough excess to cut off a small amount of hose for a tighter connection?

[@HelloWorld-hb7yt]

wow, thank you, saved me from calling a plumber.

I’m having a hard time with that waste arm, where it connects to the P-trap. Because it needs to be angled from my garbage disposal. I can’t get a good seal where it connects to the P-trap.

should I use plumbers tape on PVC

I just found out a dishwasher drain hose was supposed to have a high loop (doesn't look like yours does) so if the sink backs up, the water won't drain into the dishwasher. That just happened to me, what a mess.

[@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel]

Hi, yes you should have a high loop. This dishwasher has a built in high loop. When I spoke to their technical department, they said you don't have to add an additional high loop, but you can depending on the installation.
