    It looks like there was previously a dishwasher or washing machine already connected to it on the left hand side?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Hi , my daughter's just moved out and this is the plumbing in her new place   I'm presuming the waste for washing machine is attached to the pipe on the left somehow ?
    She wants to add a dishwasher what pipework do we need to add or change so the waste can use the same pipe. Thanks 
    Is that a spare connection on the left?
    From what I can see, the washing machine waste is the flexible pipe at the top and the pipe on the right is the cutlery sink drain.

    Isn't that the overflow?
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.
  • The flexible pipe is the sink overflow . The pipe of the right is for the cutlery sink waste . The spare connection on the left is where her waste for washer will go when she gets her washer. We just need to know how to add a waste for her dishwasher ?

    Yes. I thought the washing machine was in place. Also my composite sink doesn't have an overflow even though there's a connection outlet underneath.
