how would I set this up in my kitchen? Would I have to hook up the hose to my kitchen drain pipes?

yes, anytime the tube is not hanging straight down or is not attached the drain sprays water everywhere

I insert the hose into a tall trash can and after each time I use it, I dump it out in the sink. It is very annoying.

Its a pain in the but and will leak when trying to make water stream upwards to sink better using a tub and make sure to secure end down or it will fall out

The bowl has a hose that drains into the sink or in my case, the bathtub. A separate water source is required, so if you have a sprayer on your kitchen sink, you can use that. I live in an apartment that does not have a sprayer on the kitchen sink, so I hooked up a handheld showerhead and I use that for my guests! (sorry for the delay, I am just now seeing this message.)

Honestly I was thinking the same thing but I went to sallys and bought a sprayer only because my faucet sprayer wasnt long enough and for it to drain I bought a huge storage tub (walmart) I tried havihg it drained into my sink but that was a mess water everywhere but other then that I love thus shampoo bowl

No, this is just a plastic hose that has no pressure and it needs to be flowing down, I have my portable sink next to my utility sink and then I have a 5 gallon bucket under it that I just placed to hose in it to drain. I use a sprayer hose that I attach to my utility sink and use that to shampoo someone's hair with, make sure you empty the bucket when it gets full.

Kitchen would be difficult, I think. I don't know how you would connect the drain hose to a kitchen drain. Would probably require a plumbing pro. Obviously, you cannot use the sink drain because water runs downhill. We use ours in the bathroom, draining it into the shower drain, securing the hose in position by loosely closing the shower door. You could also use a bathtub.

Yes, we hook ours up to the kitchen faucet and then hook up our garden hose to it so we can bath the dog in the bathtub with the hose.

It has a regular garden hose/washing machine hose attachment, you'd likely need a coupling to attach to your kitchen faucet.

Not really, it comes ready to attach to a garden hose so you would need an adapter for your kitchen sink spout. Also the water comes out very slowly so your better off setting it up with some sort of holding tank or pressurized tank.

You NEED a water supply - you might be able to attach a hose to a kitchen sink faucet.....but you definately need water.

We live in an apartment also, and Danby provides you with everything you need to hook it up to an average kitchen sink. They give you a fitting that mounts on your faucet, and a quick disconnect on the hose so you can get it off easily. It vents into the sink, but we have to be careful to weigh the hose down or the water pressure forces it right out of the sink.

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.

Water hose to faucet. Turn on knob. Love mine. Ran the drain hose to a flower bed and use the sink to wash veggies from the garden.

You do not need a hose, it comes with a plastic container where you pour the soap and screw on the faucet, under the countertop

Yep - we have a hose hooked up to the back of ours that is feeding directly into a drain in the basement. Works great.

go to a hardware store and ask for a hose adapter for you sink faucet. Be extremely careful about using it inside! The hose I bought burst and sprayed water everywhere. Lucky for me, it was outside. These hoses, to be quite blunt, SUCK!

Use the "Upper Drain Port" in the middle of the back of the unit. See my review dated 7/22/2014 for list of inexpensive parts to hook up a drain hose.

The unit comes with a hose that's about 6 feet long. My unit is placed in the center of my basement far from the basement drain. I threw my hose away, but as I recall, it was a simple push on to the unit rather than a garden type hose.Without the hose, you will have to empty this unit daily.

There is a connection on the control head for a drain line. You will need to run it to a drain in your house. You can use flexible tubing to run to a drain anywhere in your home. call us at 785-735-9769 or visit afwfilters for more information

Hi Nilehorse, This system is for portable use. It screws int a standard hose bib type connector. I put an adapter on the sink. This company also has 'point of use' type with a small tank. The 'point of use' type can go under the kitchen sink. You may be thinking about a whole house filter, which would go after the holding tank.

The water is most likely coming from a kitchen or bath faucet and should be safe, however if you connect a garden type hose to it, it's a question as to how safe or sterile the hose is.

Also you need plumbing for sink if that's your question. These are fixtures that need to connect to separate water lines (hot-cold) not included and plumbing for water to drain into sewer Don't get cheap plastic lines, the metal braided is the best Good luck
