Connecting Hot Water Supply - Thermador DW244UB Installation Instructions Manual

Typical drain connections are shown in Figures 12, 13
and 14. Figure 12 shows typical connection. Figures 13
and 14 show possible connections when an air gap is
required.
IMPORTANT
If no air gap is used and the drain line is run into
a sink or disposer, the drain line must be elevated
to a point higher than the highest water level of
the sink to prevent back siphoning into the
dishwasher.
NOTE: If connection to an air gap is required by local
code, air gap kits are available from local plumbing
sources. Install the air gap according to the
manufacturer's instructions

CAUTION
Failure to provide the proper drain
connection height, 20" (508 mm) above
floor level with high loop or air gap, will
result in improper draining of the
dishwasher. Improper draining may cause
damage to the dishwasher.
AVERTISSEMENT
Si l'on ne respecte pas la hauteur appropriée
pour le branchement du tuyau de vidange 20
po (500 mm) au-dessus du niveau du sol avec
une grande boucle ou un trou d'aération, il en
résultera une mauvaise vidange, ce qui pourrait
endommager le lave-vasselle.
Connecting the Hot Water Supply Line
The hot water supply line should be flushed to clear
any foreign material BEFORE connecting the dishwasher.
Make sure there are no sharp bends or kinks which
might restrict water flow.

Apply Teflon tape or other pipe sealant to 90° elbow
fitting and connect directly to water inlet valve. Attach
other end of fitting to your water supply line.
When connecting threaded pipe use pipe thread
®
compound or Teflon
on the water supply to check for leaks after making
connections.
If using a solder joint instead of a compression fitting be
sure to make all solder connections before connecting
the water line to the dishwasher. Do not solder within
6 inches
(152.4 mm) of the dishwasher's inlet valve. Temperatures
required for soldering will damage the valve.
