    Thank you for this video!! The wife and I tackled this with confidence referring back and forth to the video while installing. Took us about 3 hours because we took our time to be sure. Saved a lot of money! We paid $400 for dishwasher, they wanted $150 to install. Saved it thanks to you folks sharing your knowledge. Recommend using plumbers tape for threaded fittings, just to be sure.

    I just bought the WDF520PADM model today and I declined the $150 charge for the installation thinking I will somehow figure it out or ask my friend to help me install it when the time comes. I am glad I found this video. My dishwasher will be delivered in two days and I am excited to get started. I have so much confidence after watching this video. Thank you so much for posting this video.

    Your videos are like mine; no nonsense and get straight to it! I installed my last dishwasher, that I just replaced with this model, but it's been a while and this was a nice refresher. A quick view through your tutorial made my install go smooth. So, thanks for this.

    Installed Whirlpool model WDF330PAHS which is similar to this one. The instructions were spot on. Even with having good experience with plumbing, electrical, and appliance installation, this video provided some useful tips with this particular model and gave me good insight on exactly what to expect. Barely even needed the install manual.

    • @pbakai182
      @pbakai182 3 роки тому

      Thanks for the comment - I just ordered the same model you installed and was hoping the installation was similar. How's the DW holding up after 4 months?

    Great video, clear directions. New Whirlpool dishwasher works amazing. My old Kenmore one was a champ installed in 1991. I calculated the energy costs and it appears like it will drop the KWH from about 950 down to 241. Estimated electric bill down from $122 to $31 annually. Got this dishwasher this weekend 9/2018, at a local appliance shop new for just $300. Full cost recovery in just 3 years, 4 months! Plus I'm going to have dishes that are actually clean! :)

    Thanks for video, sadly this thing was much more difficult to hook to a solid brass line where the height had to be all the way lowered. If you pause at 10:48 you will see that drain line going under the feed line, mine has no room for both so they collide and connecting the solid brass feed was a nightmare.

    The model we bought required the input of an installation cycle.
    After installation we got an error code code and the dishwasher would not operate. After the inputting the installation cycle. Everything worked fine.
    I was very frustrated until I reread the instructions. Lol if all else fails read the instructions..

  • @patrickrenschler
    @patrickrenschler 6 років тому +1

    thanks for the video. The part that I'm still not sure about is how the drain hose is supposed to be oriented after you connect it. You can't see it in the video. On my unit, the drain hose that is already attached to the dishwasher has an opening pointing towards the front of the dishwasher. So when I attach the drain hose, it has to awkwardly loop back in order to go to the back of the dishwasher where the hole in the cabinet is. Not sure if my unit has the attached drainage tube oriented wrong?

    I realize that this video is for a different model but if anyone is installing a dishwasher using the w10806906H manual be aware the height adjustment chart has an error for the 341/2 size cabinet opening. 27 millimeters is 1 inch and 1/16th not 11/16th's.

    Whirlpool Customer support does not exist.
    When the product doesnt work. No technicians to help. They dont show up for appointments. Leaving me with a $800 paperweight that should be a refridgerator. Hours on hold trying to get a hold of customer service who cant help you at all! so disappointing. will never buy again!
