Can a washing machine drain be connected to this?

The flow capacity of this pump should be more than adequate but depends on the head you're pumping against--check the pump curves for that. You will have to set the pump in a sump or container then direct the washer drain into the sump.

It's been done. It'll have to be in a large round container so the float can hang down alongside the pump, then the water can lift it to start the pump. You'll have to put a flapper valve in so the outflow tube so water won't come back out of the pump when it shuts off.

You can't connect it directly. The buoyancy of the black, round float inside a tank causes the switch to trigger and the suction to occur. Our washing machine is in our basement. The main drainage line is closer to the ceiling, rather than the floor. We put the washing machine drain pipe into a tank, and put this submersible in the tank. The pump pushes the water up to a 4 inch drainage pipe that leads to the main out of the house. You will need to purchase additional piping for the drainage as well. Each situation is different for that.

As far as I remember, NO. I connected mine to a laundry room sink faucet and I had to buy an additional adapter to make it work

You will need some way to provide power, since this was a replacement the romax was just a matter of disconnecting and reconnecting. I'm not familiar with the washer connection kit. I did need to add a tail piece for the discharge into my plumbing which I found in my bag of plumbing stuff.

As I look at the threads on my kitchen sink and the threads on the hose, I say no. You may be able to do it by attaching adapters. Visit a hardware store and they will get it done for you!

No. You would have to mount the canister above the septic pipe in the basement as it is a gravity drain after the washing machine pumps into it. Your washing machine pump would probably pump it that high - especially if it is already pumping it into the septic pipe.

Yes. I have mine sitting close to a drain and use the hose that was included.

Yes there is a small pipe to which you can attach the drain pipe from the dishwasher after knocking out a plastic plug.

I used the drain that was used for my old washer. It is on the wall about 3 feet high. I have no problems with this configuration.

I dont think so. The drain hole is in the middle of the sink. Btw I love the sink. Only problem us that there are real corners and straight sides to it which require a little more cleaning

No washer. The gap is what makes this disconnect work. If there were no gap then the battery would still be connected. I have used this switch successfully for nearly 3 years and it works as designed. I use it to stop the slow overnight battery drain (short) I have.

no unfortunately it can not. It does not provide a drain valve. You have to disconnect the unit from plumbing / electric and tip it over several times.

I do not think so, I just looked at the unit, I do not see any place to attach a drain hose.

You could but unless you have a very long hose on the output and/or low water pressure what's the point? This is not a pressure washer, just a poor to mediocre transfer pump.

Yes. All you need to do is unscrew a cap on the back and screw on a section of garden hose for a gravity drain. I drain mine to a small lift pump that I bought at Lowe's.

I think most of the electric power washers have a standard connection. I looked at the one you mentioned and I think it will work fine.

I don't know what you mean but mine is connected to the dishwashing machine. It however came without a plug and luckily my old one was a ge too so the plumber cut the plug from the old one and attached it to the new one. Hope this helped you.

yes it can be a single drain, there is a cap that allows for that. It is complete, all you need is the corregated pipe to connect to it.
