How to connect the dishwasher with their hands

Content

Site preparation

When you select a placement, you must take into account the design of the device. For embedded device will need a small margin, which is required for hanging facade.

Under a free-standing machine is strictly a place selected in size. The general requirements to the place where the device will be put, are:

• unhindered access to the sewer, water and electrical;
• plums at a distance of no more than 1.5 meters from the sewer to the dishwasher;
• the presence of a free outlet to the ground at a distance which allows not to use an extension cord.

Location for the desktop machine to determine simpler. It does not require a constant connection to the sewer. It suffices to select a flat surface providing stability of position near the sink.

A set of tools and materials

On the well-equipped kitchen, where the presence of all necessary communications to establish the unit will be using:

• electric drill;
• Screwdriver set (straight and curly);
• building level;
• wrench;
• scissors for cutting metal and plastic.

From the materials that will be needed to connect to the sewer and other communications should be prepared:

• Siphon with hose, drain will be organized through it;
• tee and shut-off valve for connection to the water;
• filters for deep cleaning, which prolongs the operation of the device, protecting it from dirt and rust;
• bight which will be used as if the nominal extension tube will be too short;
• plug and wire, if necessary wiring;
• fumlenta for sealing compounds.

sink

At the beginning of the installation must be properly connected to the sewer drain. To do this:

• set the trap under the sink, which will reduce the probability of penetrating odor of sewage in the room;
• connect the tube to the siphon with a slope, providing the fastest possible discharge of wastewater by gravity;
• to prevent the ingress of water from the sink in the sink, and then in the dishwasher, in the place of its connection to the siphon hose to create a bend;
• in addition to upper hose provide lower bend which does not allow ingress sewer odors inside the washing machine.

Do not:

• lower the hose directly into the sink, which may result in slipping and flooding the floor in the kitchen;
• placed under the drain hose is too high, leading to pump overload and loss of device performance.

Water connection

This step is the most time consuming, especially when there is no centralized water. Out of such a situation can be found in the assembly at a height of 2 or 3 meters tank, which will provide an uninterrupted water supply to the machine. A well-maintained kitchen procedure is as follows:

1. blocks access of water to the water supply;
2. disconnect the hose from the water supply faucet;
3. assemble the tee, where we connect the hose;
4. on the tee fitting Hepa filter;
5. after it set the shut-off valve;
6. We sit down on the valve tube of the device;
7. if necessary, use an extension hose, not forgetting about the density of connections;
8. all connections thicken fumkoy that ensure their integrity.

Hot water

There are models of dishwashers, which provides the ability to connect to hot water. However, experts are not recommended to open access to the hot water unit. Hot water quality worse than cold. During the heating hot water have more contact with the metal surface which will inevitably affect the quality. The savings from the use of hot water is not justified, because it costs more expensive electricity. When using hot water having undesirable effects in the dishwasher:

• fails the check valve;
• there is an unpleasant smell from the washed dishes;
• It increases the risk of device failure.

These effects can be avoided if the connection to the hot water occurs through the boiler. In this case, you can not worry about the quality, but also increases the power consumption. If the choice was made in favor of the device with hot water, it is necessary to take care of additional protection against the consequences of its application.

Power dishwasher

If the socket is near the nominal and the power cord allows you to connect the device to the power supply without using an extension cord, this phase of work is possible to limit the inclusion of the plug into the socket.

Otherwise it is necessary to do the installation of additional wiring, use an extension cord as inadmissible. The explanation is simple, the dishwasher has high capacity, therefore, use an extension cord can cause very undesirable consequences.

To correctly install an additional outlet in the vicinity of the intended placement of the device must adhere to the following guidelines:

• you must use a 16A socket;
• it is obligatory to ground;
• use of conductive copper conductors with a cross section of 2 mm;
• electrical connection is made from board or junction box;
• line should be protected with a 16A fuse;
• in order to avoid overloading the line is not connected to a power outlet other devices.

This connection will eliminate the need to connect the device through an extension cord, make use of the device safe, and her work durable.

alignment

After doing all the installation work can place the device on a dedicated place and align its position. This is because the distortion will negatively affect the operation of the unit. To adjust leg alignment enough level using the previously prepared.

test switch

It is a short, but important step in the process of connecting a household appliance. Among the modes of operation should be selected idle without loading dishes, start the machine and check:

• the speed of water flow;
• plums on the absence of obstacles;
• all connections for tightness.

If the device works correctly, the burning question, how to connect the dishwasher yourself, has been resolved correctly, and you can proceed to its daily operation.
