low_and_there Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Hello folks, would appreciate advice on how we can connect our dishwasher outflow pipe into the drain under the sink (photo added). The washing machine empties into a stand pipe. I’ve previously added a dishwasher into a spigot under a sink but this pipework here hasn’t got one and I can’t see how to add one.. I’d like to avoid buying a whole new under sink set there as this set up is only for about six months while we wait for planning permission to extend. thanks in advance!

joe90 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 It should connect to that blanked off bit far left of your photo, can’t find just that bit but you could use one of these and use the pipe connector only https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-v33s-compression-domestic-appliance-tee-piece-connector-white-40mm/4167P?kpid=4167P&ds_kid=92700055281954514&ds_rl=1249404&gclid=Cj0KCQjwl92XBhC7ARIsAHLl9al99MvEDW8bzYH3Ye4NlsghvxCE5GiVuPeNu8SlTZipC1bzINR2gDAaAv7EEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I add an extender piece to take it out beyond the sink bowl do you think? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone West Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 This one is even cheaper. https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-hose-connector-40mm/48625?kpid=48625 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t understand as that’s how they are designed, it does not have to be vertical, horizontal will do for the pipe bit as it’s a pumped supply. OR will it fit to that blank below the small sink (far right?j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really appreciate your help @joe90 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jimbo Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Stick it on the one on the left. Horizontal inlet to the drain is fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can extend or get longer hoses but not worth the faff, left hand side horizontal will work just fine 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
