    Hello,

    The mice connect the dishwasher to the existing water drain and intake used by the washing machine. I was looking for something like a tee, splitter on the alegro and unfortunately I did not find anything that would suit me :( . Maybe I couldn't name it properly, hence my post on the forum.

    before going to the wall, give yourself a tee (if you have a pipe fi 50) and on one side a reduction for the drain hose. Remember not to get the siphon effect - drawing water from the washing machine through the dishwasher or vice versa. I had such a case once. The client did not know why he pays such water bills! And here the dishwasher drains the water after washing; washing machine disconnected from the socket washing in water; there is no water in the washing machine after a few minutes ;) . the water overflowing from the dishwasher pulled the water out of the washing machine.

    I think that I will manage to connect an additional drain somehow, worse is the water supply to the washing machine and dishwasher. I think that the siphon effect will not occur because the drain hoses are about 2.5 meters long, a different matter with water supply.

    First: are there any suitable branching to connect the 2 hoses
    leading to one valve. One side must be threaded
    inside and 2 others outside.

    Second: If I manage to connect 2 hoses to one valve
    supplying water whether, for example, turning on a dishwasher, water will not be
    is pulling into the washing machine ??? and vice versa.

    Regarding the first one, put the tee, 2 valves and after trouble, or the tee after the valve and the "nipples" with reduction. Regarding the second question, she won't "puff", you have solenoids in your washing machine and dishwasher.

    Before the valve you have, give a 1/2 inch tee and connect the current valve and the new one purchased at the installation store to it. Ask for a valve with an outlet to the washing machine, i.e. 3/4 inch. The seller will advise you on what parts to buy. If you don't know plumbing at all, you won't order parts online.

    The solution with the triplet and nipples suits me best :) Thanks for the help

    Hello
    I had the same problem until I found a 45 degree up and down tee in OBI which I screwed onto the valve and there are threads for water supply to the equipment at the outputs.

    I am looking for something like that, unfortunately I did not find it on the Allegro website. It remains to hope that I will get Nomi, Castorama or Leroy Merlin or some specialized shop .. OBI in my village have not yet built :(

    And I have a similar question: I have a supply valve and a washing machine connected, so now I have to buy a T-piece with a valve instead and connect it to the wall? such a splitter on the washing machine and dishwasher but that the threads fit externally.

    and when it comes to the drain, how to do it so that, for example, water from the dishwasher does not get into the washing machine? I have a sewage pipe in the wall of 50 mm and a drain ball valve attached to it so that odors do not come from the sewage system. Are there any splitters so that the water poured from the dishwasher does not go into the washing machine and at the same time the ball valve (a plastic ball in the middle that closes the drain automatically) blocks it as it does now?

    I recommend a visit to the nearest supermarket. There are such nice double valves available, i.e. two valves in one body. You can replace the single one from the photos and the power problem solved without ugly nipples and tees.

    the power supply is not a problem, but it is a drain ... so that the drain does not let water from the washing machine get to the dishwasher hose and vice versa, and that the odors from the sewage system remain.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around connecting a washing machine and dishwasher to a single drain using appropriate splitters and valves. Users suggest using a tee fitting with a reduction for the drain hose to prevent siphoning issues, which can lead to water being drawn from one appliance to another. Recommendations include installing a tee with two valves or a double valve to manage water supply effectively. Concerns about ensuring that water from the dishwasher does not flow back into the washing machine are addressed, with suggestions for using a ball valve to block reverse flow. Users also mention searching for specific fittings at local hardware stores like OBI, Castorama, and Leroy Merlin, as well as online platforms like Allegro.
