WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTIONS / FINAL CHECKLIST / STARTUP
An air gap of a minimum of 2 vertical inches (5 cm) must be
between the end of the drain pipe from the appliance and the
floor drain.
For gravity drain installation, drain must have 1/4" fall per foot
(2 cm per 1 m) on horizontal runs to get good flow. A vented
tee connection is also required for proper flow. Extend the vent
at least 12" (30 cm) above the drain outlet. For optional drain
pump (63802A) installation, refer to the instructions included
with the pump.
