Hello,

I don't have enough space under my kitchen counter. Hence I need to place dishwasher near the sink and would like to know how can I connect the dishwasher inlet pipe to kitchen tap.

dishwasher inlet pipe will be standard dimension

I read somewhere that threaded 3/4 connector can be used to connect kitchen tap to water inlet hose. However, I am unsure if this will work. And, hence looking for your advice.


Thank you
Ankur
 
I am a novice to plumbing and looking for ways how i can connect dishwashers inlet hose to my kitchen tap.

Bit difficult to make sense of your question, are you simply asking how to plumb in a dishwasher by attaching dishwater inlet pipe to pipe that feeds sink tap (15mm) ?
If so, I'd say shaun answered your question. The 3/4 thread of dishwasher will fit to valve of standard washing machine valve 3/4 to 1/2..... Probably got wrong end of stick, if i have, any chance of photo? lol
 
Thank you for your reply. I have attached picture of kitchen tap, kitchen tap adapter (3/4 threaded adaptor) and water inlet hose.

So I am planning to buy compact dishwasher that will be placed on top of kitchen counter. And, the water inlet hose of dishwasher will need to be attached to kitchen tap (not pipe) using some type of kitchen tap adaptor.

so looking for suggestion on what type of adaptor do i need to use or will this work?

Sorry if I was unclear in earlier post.

I thought this is what you meant. You can unscrew the air seperate on the tap outlet and put that fitting in the middle in. Will probably need some ptfe on the thread of the connector though.

The Best option would be to do as others have said to be honest and get a plumber in.
