INSTALLATION PREPARATION
DRAIN PREPARATION
CABINET PREPARATION
The type of drain installation depends on answers to the following
questions:
Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?
Will waste tee or disposer connection be less than 18” above
the floor?
Will installation have a drain loop less than 32” above floor?
If the answer to ANY of the 3 questions above is YES, Method 1
MUST be used. Otherwise either Method 1 or Method 2 may be used.

An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain hose is connected to
waste tee or disposer lower than 18" above the floor.
Failure to provide the proper drain connection height with air
gap or 32" minimum, high drain loop will result in improper
