Bosch SKT5102GB/09 Intake Hose

[NeuroticNikki]

Good evening everyone!

I am struggling with this countertop dishwasher I bought secondhand to help my husband, who is my full time carer.

It’s an older model, 10 years apparently, and I was mislead when buying as the intake hose wasn’t supplied. When I looked on the Bosch spares website the replacement has red caps on each end and is wrapped in red/silver outer covering. Now, forgive me if I’m wrong, but isn’t red the universal colour for hot? But it has 4 different temperature variations on the units settings.

I cannot seem to find a definitive answer as the instruction book is next to useless!

Hey Shaun,

This is the one on the Bosch site

They can be hot or cold fill according to the instructions. But you are probably better using cold fill.

That's just the same as a standard washing machine hose just twice the price because its Bosch

Dish washers tend to be cold fill what model is it ? did you get any instructions with it, if not go onto bosch website you should find the information you require.

Hi! I did get instructions with it, they are basic and do not say what intake it has (yeah, useful I know!), I have searched for installation instructions and they aren’t any.

It is model SKT5102GB/09. Thank you for your reply JTS x

Your instructions say preferably cold fill but if you use hit a maximum temp of 60degrees, there are not many machines now that use hot fill nearly all cold so I wouldn't fret just fit it to cold.
