what is a suitable drain?

I have a small hose attached to the back which goes into the basement drain

I have several around the ranch and shop. The one in the vault uses a flexible 3/8" fuel line-type hose that runs outside of the building onto the garden.The one in the storm room runs directly into the floor drain with a short fitting.The one in the gun shop runs through a 5 garden foot hose into a floor drain.The one in the basement runs through a 4 foot garden hose into a condensate pump which runs it to a sewer pipe.I reckon the most important thing is that the hose runs DOWNWARD and has no restriction.

I run the drain hose into the basement floor drain. The hose is NOT included. I picked one up at the local hardware store.

I ran a short length of garden hose to my sump pump. It's not a heavy output. Dribs and drabs as the condensation collects.

I bought a short garden hose for $8, and ran it directly into one of my basement floor drains

A "suitable drain" is one that will allow the water from the unit to be carried out of the area without backing up into the area where the moisture is being removed. If the area does not have a drain already installed, you will need to install one or continue to manually empty the unit's catch bucket.

What do you mean? I dump mine into a nearby sink. If you mean continuous drain, you'd attach a hose to the back of the unit, and that could go into a drain.

Yes. You'll need a mat so the water doesn't sit on your counter. I would look at Rubbermaid 1180MABISQU Drainer Tray.

What drains wonderfully! Not as quickly as a curved shaped sink, but no puddling issues.

A standard lavatory drain will work. This sink has an overflow built in. You could use a pop up drain style or a grid drain for this lavatory. You do not need any special drain. Be sure you have backing in the wall to hang the lav.

Use a fiberglass floor. You won't have to worry about leaks and regrouting in the future. Also much easier to install the drain.

The drain is a "poppet" valve with a light spring allowing for automatic opening at low pressure. It's a small diameter opening without threads.

I do not believe you need a special drain. You do need to get a tub stop of your choice. I chose a pop-up style.

that should work fine. we had a sink that we tapped into the drain line, but your idea should work. we had no problem other than operator error and got good service when we did need help.

I have the same thing. I believe that the product you need is: OXO Good Grips Silicone Drain Protector for Pop-Up & Regular Drains, Amazon sells it here: OXO Good Grips Silicone Drain Protector for Pop-Up & Regular Drains . Enjoy :)

just attach a longer drain hose. Its a simple fix....hardwares store rubber tubing will be fine for this.

No problem for you. Lip diameter is 4.5" and screen is 2.75". I like the flexibility to fit any size drain. Looks great and works fine. I wonder about the longevity of stainless steel in a wet environment like a sink, but for the price am willing to chance it.

It is normal for the drain. It will be nice to find a way to recycle the drained water for the garden!

I use a washing machine drain pan from hardware store, which is 28x30 and works very well. Amazon sells them, too.

You shouldn't need a drain line in a cabinet that has a good seal. Btw this is a powerful (and relatively loud) unit, ideal for garages (between 40 - 95F) - if your cabinet is placed indoors, you may want to consider a quieter unit.

We couldn't find exact fit either. We found one that fits side to side but has a 2 Inch gap at top and bottom. It works for the money while we look for another. $45 @ Amazon. Make sure to get an off-center hole for the drain. It is all stainless and well made. Good luck!

We didn't look into this option but we think there is another one sold by this manufacturer that might meet this requirement. We have a ground drain & don't use a sink for draining.

Yes, you could cut out an area for the drain. You'd want to avoid trying to cut through the little suction cups on the back though....there's a lot of them, but shouldn't be a problem.
