The inlet accepts a 5\/8 inch O.D. hose connection, and the outlet accommodates a 7\/8 inch O.D. drain hose. The chrome-plated finish provides a clean, finished appearance at the sink deck. This fitting creates a physical break in the drain line, which stops contaminated water from flowing backward into the appliance water supply. It also provides a secondary drainage path if the drain hose becomes clogged, allowing water to discharge directly into the sink basin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BC9441 is used in residential kitchen installations where a dishwasher connects to a sink drain or garbage disposal. Many local plumbing codes require an air gap device at the point where the dishwasher drain line exits the appliance. This fitting mounts through a standard sink deck knockout or countertop hole, positioning the chrome cap above the sink rim for code-compliant installation. It is installed by licensed plumbers or qualified plumbing contractors during new dishwasher installations or drain line service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8 inch O.D. inlet and 7\/8 inch O.D. outlet connections for standard dishwasher drain hose compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish for a clean appearance at the sink deck or countertop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents backflow siphoning of wastewater into the appliance fresh water supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an alternate discharge path if the drain hose becomes blocked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequired by many local plumbing codes for dishwasher drain installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation air gap for residential dishwasher drain line applications where a 5\/8 inch O.D. inlet and 7\/8 inch O.D. outlet connection are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing code requirements, including the International Plumbing Code (IPC) where adopted. Shut off the water supply and disconnect power to the dishwasher before beginning drain line work. The air gap mounts through a pre-drilled hole in the sink deck or countertop, with the cap positioned above the sink rim. Do not install the fitting below the flood-level rim of the sink, as this would defeat the backflow-prevention function of the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch O.D.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch O.D.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36.73 inches x 2.52 inches x 2.52 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BRASSCRAFT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BC9441\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BRASSCRAFT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52074177167666,"sku":"BC9441","price":22.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0695fc24f175280e4ac895e09ca42dd4.jpg?v=1790051009","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/brasscraft-bc9441-dishwasher-air-gap-chrome-plated","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
