I'm putting my washer in the garage I want to be able to drain the water from the washing machine into the sink. How does this work?

Your washer should be able to pump the gray water into a sink or sewer line without the pump. The pump is best used when the sewer line is above a sink drain, for example.

I used the pump to lift water from the wash tub in the basement up about 6 ft to the septic line, it works great , it will empty its 6 gal resivoir in about 15 seconds, ( it pumps a lot of water ) my model has a built in check valve so the water only moves away from tank. I dont know if I would connect the washer discharge right to the sump, I think I would dump the water ointo a utility sink and then into simer .

all you need to do is to tap in underneath the sink with a fitting to the top of the sump pump.you can stick the washing machine hose right into the top of the sump area. It is where the water will drain into the sump. you do not need to build a trap. the water stays inside the sump pump and acts as its own trap. so you can have the discharge pipe go past the trap on your sink in your garage.

I did a little test to find the low spot that water will flow to around my washing machine and hot water heater by pouring a little water in the area where they are located. The water will pool in that low spot and that is where I placed the sensor. I just have it sitting on the floor in these low spots. I know it works because my wife was doing some hand wash in the sink which is right next to the washer and some water spilled on the floor. She was on the phone to me asking "how do I shut this thing off???". They work. Hope this help.

I have used it in the sink and it worked well. Get a lot of water in the sink and if it is a double sing have someone hold a washcloth on on of the sinks and just start pumping. Ours was not draining at all and it knocked it loose.

I would think it should work for most portable washers. It has a female right angle garden hose connector on the water in and a clamp on end for the drain out. However I modified the connections and use it to connect my wort chiller to the faucet when making home brew beer. I replaced the right angle female connector with a straight male connector and put a male connector on the drain hose to connect wort chiller It works well and now the drain can't fall out of the sink fluidizing my kitchen.

There is a hose (it's actually 2 in 1) coming from the back of the unit that attaches to your faucet. The faucet remains on throughout the cycle and the unit controls the flow of water. From that same hose it drains into the sink. The hose isn't very long so you will want to make sure you have space and an outlet within a few feet of the sink.

The dishwasher drains into the insinkerator, but you have to remove a blind plug with a hammer and screw driver. It does plug into a wall outlet.

A washer comes with a drain hose attached but not the hot/cold water hoses..

GE GTWN 4250 is the one I got, it was on sale at Sears over the Holiday weekend. Just make sure it will work with your drain set up. We have old house with a higher stand pipe and I don't think it quite drains all the way. Other than that it is a FANTASTIC washing machine! My clothes are actually CLEAN and it doesn't take two hours to wash a single sheet!!!

If you use it in the washing machine; it'll empty out with the water. Never had an issue.

You can connect a hose and put the hose in a drain. Never have to empty the bucket again!

You would have to have a machine that empties into a utility sink- If that is the case, you simply put the filter on the end of the outflow house, and secure it with the provided "lock on" device- It's VERY easy- The lint accumulates in the bag, when full, you simply discard it.

If you have a electrical outlet, that you can power on and off with a switch, near where the unit will be installed, you should be all set with the power supply. If you are connecting a dishwasher to the unit, you may need to purchase a universal dishwasher coupler to connect the drain line from the dishwasher to the waste disposal. Finally, you will want to be sure to have the proper plumbing parts to connect the waste outlet from the disposal to your drain.

It drains directly into the sink. I love this thing. Even with a automatic dishwasher I use it daily.

From the way you stated your question I take it that you plan to connect the Campbell valve directly to the output of your washing machine drain hose. If that's true and from what I've read about the spring pressure requiring 1/2 pound pressure to open the valve it may work if the valve is connected close to the washing machine. I would think the further away the valve is connected you would loose pressure due to possible air in the drain line. However the valve is designed for use with a sump pump. To be certain contact Campbell Mfg or buy one and give it a go. Good luck.

My dishwasher is hooked up to drain into the disposal. I used the old hose and clamp.

We mounted this directly to our laundry sink underneath the molded drain. Works great.

Yep and it works great, just make sure you add the washer to add extra space needed to make it work correctly.
