Connecting Drain Hose

If the end of the drain hose does not fit the drain

(not supplied). These may be obtained from a local
plumbing supply store.
The two typical connections are shown. To prevent
siphoning, one of the following connections should be
used.
Drain Requirements
• Follow local codes and ordinances.
• Do not exceed 12 ft. (3.65 m) distance to drain.
• Do not connect drain lines from other devices to the

connecting the two hose ends.
