SUPPLY VALVES
Dishwasher valves may go untouched for years even decades . Over time the washer inside the valve can harden and become covered with mineral deposits. When you close the valve then open it again, the washer on the valve stem may not reseal. Valve replacements are at customers own expense.
We perform all types of electrical, plumbing and carpentry modifications.
AIRGAP UPC 807.4
Purpose of the Airgap; To prevent waste water from siphoning back into dishwasher during and after drain cycle. Airgap is also a dishwasher vent, eliminates pressure and trapped sewer gas in the dishwasher drain, in return prevents unseen bacterial growth. We will not violate the UPC CODE and install a dishwasher with out a airgap.
ELECTRICAL NEC 210.8 D
National electric code section 210.8 D recognizes that there are electrical shock hazards associated with dishwasher installations. The code requires GFCI protection of dishwasher receptacles. At minimum we require a standard accessible electrical outlet. We will not hardwire any new dishwasher during the course of installation.
