• Drain hose extension

Answer:

The drain hose supplied with Cove Dishwashers is 5' long, corrugated drain hose.

• This corrugated hose prevents the drain line from kinking.
• If necessary, the drain hose can be extended by a maximum of 5 feet.
  • Cove does not offer a drain hose extension.
  • Purchase a drain hose extension locally.
  • Cove recommends Factory Certified Installation or a plumber install the drain hose extension.
• The drain hose should not exceed 10 feet in length (extension + unit drain hose = 10 feet).
• If the drain hose is too long:
  o Never cut or shorten the drain hose as this will affect the amount of time the water has to discharge.
  o If there is too much, "curl" the extra hose, not loop, in a flat circular pattern (curl around itself like a snake).

• This is the only section of the drain hose that should be cut.
• Never cut the corrugated section of the drain hose.
