Fernco Inc PDWC-100 Flexible Dishwasher Connector

Product Description

The FERNCO INC PDWC-100 is a flexible dishwasher drain connector designed to link a dishwasher discharge hose to a sink drain or garbage disposer inlet. Built for fast, reliable connections in tight under-sink spaces, the PDWC-100 accommodates minor misalignment between the dishwasher outlet and the drain fitting without requiring rigid plumbing. Its flexible construction simplifies installation in both new builds and retrofit applications, reducing the need for additional fittings or adapters. Plumbers and skilled DIYers working on residential kitchen drain systems will find this connector a straightforward solution for completing a compliant dishwasher drain hookup.

The PDWC-100 is suited for residential kitchen installations where the dishwasher drain hose must terminate at a standard sink drain tailpiece or at the dishwasher inlet port of a garbage disposer. It is appropriate for use in standard under-sink plumbing configurations and is packaged for individual sale, making it a practical stocking item for service calls and new appliance installations alike.

Key Features

• Flexible body accommodates minor misalignment between dishwasher hose and drain connection point
• Connects dishwasher discharge hose to sink drain tailpieces and garbage disposer inlets
• Compact design suited for confined under-sink installation spaces
• Sold as an individual unit for single-appliance service or replacement work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation connector for residential dishwasher drain systems terminating at a sink drain tailpiece or garbage disposer inlet.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified installer. Before beginning work, shut off power to the garbage disposer at the circuit breaker and verify no water supply is active to the dishwasher. Secure the connector per the fitting manufacturer guidelines and ensure the drain hose is looped high under the cabinet to prevent backflow, as required by most local plumbing codes. Do not overtighten clamps on the flexible body, as this may distort the connector and compromise the seal.
