Asked 1 year ago by Liam.

• A:Answer Hello, Liam. We appreciate your inquiry. You will need a custom false panel that matches the dimensions specified for the appliance to ensure a proper fit. According to the specifications, the panel should be: Height: 27 13/16 inches (70.64 cm) Width: 23 3/4 inches (60.33 cm) Thickness: Typically around 3/4 inch (1.9 cm), but you should confirm this based on your cabinet design and the installation manual. Ensure the panel also allows for any necessary clearance for the control panel and handle, if applicable. Kindly refer to the installation manual for more information.  We hope this information helps! - Christi

Q: Questiondoes this dishwasher require an air gap?

Asked 1 year ago by Paula.

• A:Answer Hi, Paula! Thank you for this inquiry. Yes, most local plumbing codes require dishwashers, including this model unit, to have an air gap to prevent backflow and protect your water supply. The air gap creates a physical separation between the dishwasher's drain and the home’s plumbing system. Also, please check out 'Care of Drain Air Gap' on page 15 of the complete owner's guide on how to clean it: https://content.syndigo.com/asset/22f5b2ac-92a6-474e-acc7-915d3d73642f/original.pdf ~Juan
