Q: Questionneed US ADA compliant Dishwasher which can be connected to cold water source. Samsung DW50T6060US/AA was recommended but installation instructions reference hot water connection which I do not have. I need to document for city inspector that cold ok..

Asked 2 years ago by kb.

• A:Answer Greetings! We wish to help you with your Samsung dishwasher model and installation of it with a cold water line. This dishwasher model is ADA-compliant (Americans with Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Design). The dishwasher model requires a hot water line versus a cold water line during operation; hence, in the installation guide, the hot water supply line must support water pressures between 20 psi and 120 psi (140-830 kPa). In addition, this Samsung dishwasher does not have a water heater, all the more reason that a hot water supply line is needed. Dishwasher detergent typically requires hot water to properly activate and dissolve, which is why it is important to ensure that your dishwasher is maintaining the proper water temperature. Leo

Q: QuestionThe stainless steel looks darker in the photos than the other brands. Will this be the same color as a stainless Sub Zero refrigerator? Thank you.

Asked 3 years ago by Susan.

• A:Answer Hi Susan, We appreciate your question about the finish of this Samsung dishwasher model and if it is the same color as a different brand. We agree that certain conditions may affect how the finish of a Home Appliance may look, from the monitor used, how it was uploaded to the site, the camera that was used, etc. Each company has different ways of creating its finish for its panels. The Stainless Steel look may either look darker or lighter if compared to other brands in the market. The best way of finding out would be to visit a local vendor like Best Buy and see if the color matches. You can also try calling them and seeing if one of the agents there can check for you to save a visit. Leo

Asked 3 years ago by GizziesMom.
