DISHWASHER INSTALLATION

An installation kit for dishwashers is available from most local appliance parts dealer. This kit contains all the parts you need, as well as the instructions you will need to install a new (or used) dishwasher. The kit includes: a flexible drain hose, copper inlet tubing, double compression reduction elbow, double compression reduction union, double compression elbow, step-down adapter, test light, strain relief bushing, wire nuts, hose clamps, and barbed union connector.
Here are some things to keep in mind before installing:

Cabinetry. The opening for your dishwasher should be 24 inches wide by 34 inches high.

Electrical Specifications. Voltage and frequency-120 volts, 60 hertz; operating load-13.5 amperes, 7.9 amperes; circuit size-20 amperes. Remember that wiring must conform to local codes as well as to the National Electrical Code.

Plumbing Specifications. It is important to note that plumbing must conform to local codes. Use ,12-inch copper tube for water line. Dishwasher has internal thread at valve. A 90-degree compression ell (furnished) should be used to connect tubing to valve. Water flow pressure at dishwasher should be 20 psi to 120 psi. Water temperature at dishwasher should be 140° F. to 160° F. Drain size requires minimum copper tubing without air gap. Drain line requires minimum copper tubing with air gap, not furnished.
Caution: Avoid getting joint compound inside new joints. The hot water fill line must be flushed of anything foreign before being connected to the dishwasher fill valve. A hand shut-off valve (which is not included in the kit) should be located in an easily accessible area, adjacent to the dishwasher.

Panel. Locate the top of the lower panel just below evaporation channel support. Insert panel flange under evaporation channel support ends and push up to engage top of panel. Lift up lower bottom flange of panel, place flange over front face of frame and push in. Fasten panel with two screws furnished. If a wood or laminated front is to be used and these panels are not immediately available, use back-up panel furnished with trim kit. Stainless-steel trim should be used to assemble wood or laminate when available. Reverse procedure when removing lower panel.

Kitchen on a Budget

Decorating a home can be a trying thing to do with the best of budgets. The fact that you do not happen to have large lots of money lying around however should not prevent you from having a lovely kitchen to call your own. The kitchen is after all, the heart of any home and you want this room to be one that invites everyone to come, congregate, and pitch in (one can always dream right?). This is the reason that you want your kitchen to shine above all other rooms in your home though. The kitchen should radiate warmth and home to all who enter.


Truthfully speaking there are many things you can do in your kitchen that will greatly impact the overall look of your kitchen without changing anything structurally within your kitchen. If you have wallpaper, remove it and try paint. There are all kinds of great things you can do in the kitchen from plaster, which goes amazingly well in a kitchen, to faux finishes and textures, and glazes for added impact. The walls in the kitchen are your canvas and the world is at your disposal. Just remember to try to tie the walls into the floors and cabinets or at the very least to the floors and cabinets you hope to have in your kitchen someday.

In addition to painting the walls in your kitchen you may also want to consider painting, staining, or antiquing your cabinets. I know that some jaws just dropped to the keyboard. How dare I suggest such a thing as painting wooden cabinets? The answer is simple really. It is much cheaper than replacing them and much simpler than staining them. Really it boils down to a matter of choice. My first choice wouldn’t be painting but then again, there are times when painting is a viable option. It will greatly change the overall appearance of the kitchen if nothing else.

Moving right along. Another great change that isn’t terribly expensive to make in the kitchen is hardware. The simple act of changing the door handles and drawer pulls on your kitchen cabinet can result in an almost instant facelift. When these changes are combined with painted or stained cabinetry the effects are nothing short of stunning in many cases. It’s the little things that often have the greatest impact so keep this in mind when planning your changes.

The floors of your kitchen are another rather inexpensive change that can be made despite preconceptions. Keep in mind that you do not have to go top of the line in order to enjoy huge changes in the appearance of your floors. There are laminate floors that are rather inexpensive to install as well as many forms of peel and stick tile that can bring about impressive results for very little effort and without professional skills. Any floors that you are capable of installing yourself will save a lot of money and can make a huge difference in the appearance and your enjoyment of your kitchen.

Perhaps the biggest coup of all when it comes to changing the appearance of your kitchen is the ability to apply stainless steel PVC contact paper to your kitchen appliances in order to give them the instant appearance of stainless steel. This is a very inexpensive method for updating the overall appearance of your kitchen in a matter of minutes and at a cost less than that of replacing one appliance. For your countertops an inexpensive and terribly disruptive alternative to replacing them all together is to apply peel and stick tile over your existing countertops.


As you can see there are many ways in which you can improve and enhance the warmth and coziness that you want your kitchen to convey without shattering the piggy bank in the process. More importantly, you should keep in mind that taking on one project at a time allows you to make the adjustments in your own time and as finances allow.
