what would I have to do to get the water to drain out on the ground about 8-10 feet away from the sink? thank you

Instead of connecting the supplied clear plastic hose with zip tie, take the hose over to home supply and purchase the same diameter hose of desired length and attach. Easy. Good product.

Go to Home depot and purchase some a piece of PVC, either 1" or 3/4" and a couple of stainless steel hose clamps. Use some silicon sealant around the PVC pipe and push the large included hose section around the PVC. Sometimes it might help to heat up the included large vinyl hose first as it becomes more plyable. You may or may not need the silicon depending on the fit. Use a hose clamp to clamp one section of the vinyl hose to the sink. Glue a garden hose adapter to the PVC pipe and then run your hose out as far as you would like. At least that is what I did.

Purchase an 1 1/4 inch plastic flexable tubing (any length) and a simple pipe clamp

You'll have to replace the drain hose that is supplied with the sink; it isn't long enough. I have mine draining into a hand held sprinkler that I use for watering container plants on the patio.

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

You will either have to use a hose extender if you can find the right connector or buy a longer hose for the drain. I had to set my sink in close proximity to where the water drain from a raised deck.

It comes with a flexible drain, but I don't think you could connect anything to that. You may want to just connect some type of hose to it....if you're a "handyman" I'm sure you can do it.

Try lowering the pump; if the pump is too close to the drain, it will not pump. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask me further questions.

I have the same problem. There is a design flaw, get a sharp pointed knife or something and move the drain hole line inside the water resorvoir. The water is not draining into the lower part. I am going to ask to get mine replaced. I see at least one other person has had the same problem

As far as I'm concerned, there are zero drainage issues. The sink won't be completely dry after it drains, but no sink is. There is no standing water, if that is your concern.

We had to deal with that too. Our solution was to put the unit on top of a 6 inch box and allow it to drain through a small hose straight down into a pump. The pump is always plugged in but has an on/off sensor that pumps the water out of the unit up into a big bucket when it reaches a certain level. Then when the bucket fills up I can easily take it to a sink or toilet. In the humid NYC summers I would have to empty it a couple of times a day but the A/C was a work horse and definitely worth it. The pump was about thirty dollars and really quiet. I think this summer I will get a longer hose that goes outside to the garden and we will never have to worry about emptying a bucket. It took me a while to set up the pump system so if you go that route let me know and I can go more in depth.

Easy. Open the lid. Lift out the basket and the water goes in the well under the basket. There is a fill line also when you are done if you are not going to use it for a few days there is a drain spout. I just set it over my sink and let it drain and wipe it out. It's ready the next time you need it.

Funny you should ask today...we are just installing it this afternoon. We actually do not have a disposal. I am sure it would be standard to instll it to the drain just fine. It is a very nice sink and we are happy with the purchase. Looks awesome.

The distance to the bottom of the sink will depend on the depth of the sink. The distance to the top of the sink is 8 inches.

The corners of the floor are open. You can hose the floor down and the water will drain out the corners.

You should have instructions that came along with them. I'm not near my drain but you basically put it in the drain hole and tighten the nut from the bottom, make sure the rubber seal goes against the sink bottom. Don't forget the plumbers putty...see what EadtCoastPete said...

Having same problem. Unit is sitting on floor and hose is draining to floor drain. I even unscrewed hose when bucket was near full and water does not even come out???

less then half an inch...i put small lifters under the legs to get it over the ledge of my kitchen sink, drains well.

You need to get a hose and hook it up- in the picture it shows 2 hoses, one is for water to the sink the other is for the drain

I used a length of garden hose that threaded on to the unit. It is about 15 feet to the sump drain. Works perfectly.

I have never had an issue with water but mine are not that close to my sink. You could always add a touch of silicone to prevent water to drip down. If its that close to water make sure you install a GFI receptacle to plug it into.

I attached a short hose, about 10 feet long, depending where u want it to drain out (cut up an old hose to length or buy one at home depot etc.) - I drain mine onto the lawn with no problem. This outside sink center is really convenient.

assuming you have a drain at a level lower than the drain plug in the unit.... buy at least 2 feet of hose that fits the drain line and press it onto the drain line
