I want this unit but I need the connectors to run about a foot longer. Has anyone hacked into the the lines to extend them? Do tell!

We purchased this dishwasher about a year ago and the lines that came with it to connect to the sink were horrible and ugly! My husband is very familiar with plumbing so he was able to buy a few extra parts and hook up to the sink line which worked perfectly. It is now in a cabinet out of sight! I do not know what exactly he purchased, but I can ask him and get back to you, if you'd like?

My unit will not work well at much over 3 feet. I wish I could get another couple feet or so but apparently not.

Rafael! Hi! I had my unit custom installed! The technician made his own wiring ! Good Luck! Dr. Joe M!

Yes it can. You would plug the line coming out of the ro into the DI just like an extension. I'm not sure they sell the units but you can get them anywhere.

As a master electrician i had to fish a circuit to my panel, install a disconnect by the outside unit. So wire, a breaker, disconnect + knowledge of codes ect. I installed and wired the unit and luckily have a part time neighbor who is a HVAC contractor. He came on a Saturday and did the lines and vacuumed the system, checked it out and got it going. We had one glitch one line was shipped the wrong size [ too big ] So we had to make a trip to the local store for the right line which had to be flared and made to fit. Luckily i had some one with a lot of experience in HVAC.

Yes they can be extended. I believe they were 16ga? I have used 16 gauge stranded wire for up to about 8 feet without any issues. Of course you shouldn't extend the wires too far if youre maxing out the transformers. I installed 4 of these in gas station signs about 2 to 3 months ago and havent had any issues as of yet...

My husband installed ours and it was also too long. He used the lines where it showed to cut it, it worked fine.

Yes, David -- that is correct. It allows you to manage up to 6 "extensions" to a single line. It also has a test jack which adds an additional line, if you wish to use it. I also have an alarm system, so the RJ31X jack comes in handy (allows the alarm to "take control" of the line).

Are you telling me to do something?? I believe you are trying to ask " WILL THIS connect to my large home SUPPLY?" Possibly I don't know how your gas lines are configured but, with the proper fittings it could.

My unit has only stopped about three foot from complete. I pulled it out 20 or more feet then walked in very fast and it worked properly. I cannot add more since mine has not locked up totally.

I started having trouble with the cable right about 100ft. I did have a couple runs about 150ft, but I ended up having to purchase a 1000ft box of 18/2 and run it to just about all the locations over 100ft.

Gosh Steven they were different lengths. I just couldn't run the wires the same way they were routed in the original configuration. Wasn't a real big deal. I have a full size tower if that helps. I made it work with little problem. Hope this helps you

I agree, line is too short. I don't see why speaker wire wouldn't work to extend. If you know anything about splicing, you'll be fine

No sir the wire is too short. I had to add a longer wire still doesn't run right don't waste your money.

I never tried to extend it much beyond the 4 feet. But please for your own sake, do not buy this waste of money! It... Does... Not....work!

You can't extend the wire for these type of lights. You can run additonal wire from transformer to new run. I believe size of wire is 18 gauge

When I installed my system, I needed longer lengths of cable. I ordered and installed 100' cables with connectors on the ends from a different vendor. Works fine.
