dishwasher drain

Hi everyone, First off, thanks for the great site. Definitely a newbie here so I apologize in advance if I put this in the wrong place or have my formatting wrong. My general questions are: Would this be up to code [UPC] (or at least pretty close) and are there any functional differences...

I am trying to install a dishwasher in an island with no sink. Can I run the drain plumbing from the dishwasher to my basement and connect it there. I will likely use an AAV as no vent is nearby. Can someone comment with ideas for this drain issue?

Hi, I recently repaired a water softener in an old house i bought. Unfortunately, it had been installed to drain the recharge brine into a sump pit, and then a pump pushed it through the foundation wall onto my neighbor's property line -- not a neighborly setup as I don't want it to kill his...

Installation gone wrong. Right-side sink has never drained properly. Does it need to have a straight pipe down to the p-trap, or should I move the Garbage Disposal. to the right, or maybe put a T into the garbage disposal to share with the Dishwasher?

The components consists of a double sink, garbage disposal and a dishwasher that drains into the garbage disposal. At the joint circled in the second picture the drain keeps on clogging and water/particles are forced through the pipe. The drain pipes are taken apart and the blockage is cleared...

Is there such a thing as an undercounter air gap? Is an air gap needed or required if drains to disposal?

I recently discovered that the vent pipe from my kitchen sink and dishwasher is undersized. The contractor routed what looks like 1" pipe through the wall (presumably because there wasn't enough room to route 2" pipe), which then feeds into a 2" pipe that leaves the house. There is no...

I haven't actually connected anything yet, as I'm not sure if its a good idea. I am going off how the old dishwasher drain was installed. The drain starts with the loop on the side of the dishwasher, then through the hole in the floor, then has a large loop, after that the drain goes into a...

New to the forum and looking for help and advice! Thanks in advance When running my dishwasher, it would often and most times leave water behind in the bottom. It would take hours if not a whole day for that few inches of water to go away. I proceeded to examine and found that my drain pipe...

Moved into a new house several weeks ago -- have been using the plumbing and appliances (dishwasher & washing machine) as one usually might. Yesterday, I saw there was water on the floor of the basement. I did also see some shreds of paper-like material on the floor -- perhaps it was in the pipe...

Last night after draining the dirty sink water, I found standing, dirty and stinky sink water in the btm. of dishwasher. It is still standing this morning and the smell is awful!! I just bought the house and the dishwasher is a old Kenmore Elite that doesn't dispense the soap when running so...

I am a recent new homeowner and am seeking some advice about how my dishwasher drain was plumbed. I've gotten nowhere with the builder as they're saying it's up to code and that's how they always do them. My issue is that my dishwasher runs very quiet until it begins to drain. At that point...
