I ordered a drain hose from you, but need help to install it. On your site it says the hose attaches to overflow chamber. I can't find a picture of that. Where is it located and what does it look like? The old drain hose did not have the black hose part so I'm not sure how to attach the one I got from you.

ANSWER Hi Scott.Step 6: DRAIN LINE CONNECTION
1. If the end of the drain hose does not fit to the drain line, use an adapter (not supplied) that
must be resistant to heat and detergent and may be obtained from a plumbing shop.
2. There are 2 typical connections as shown in Figures C & D.
? There may be other options than shown here for connection the drain hose. The drain
connection must meet local plumbing regulations.
? The S trap spigot must be drilled out cleanly and free of obstruction to its maximum
internal diameter, if used for drainage.
? To prevent syphoning, one of the following instruction methods must be followed:
??Follow local codes and ordinances.
??Do not exceed 10 ft. (3m) distance
to drain.
??Do not connect drain lines from
other devices to the dishwasher
drain hose.

sealing compound should be
used to avoid water leaks.
