Thank you so much for this tutorial I bought one today and the instructions were so frustrating so I thought maybe I can find help on RU-vid and there you were. God bless you build it in no time 😊
I just finished replacing all the ikea plumbing I could. Now I have to replace the drain pipe with the ikea part because it’s the only part that will fit. I find all the cheap IKEA plumbing attracts hard water buildup like crazy. But nothing at all with the ABS. So hopefully I won’t have to do this again for a long time. Good video👍🏼
Después del tiempo transcurrido desde que lo montaste, ¿Sigue en perfecto estado con una sola pata enmedio de los dos zapateros?? Es más elegante unirlos con una sola pata pero con el tiempo puede ser quizás más Inestable.
MY GC just installed this but there is a lot of water left standing in the tub. They didn’t put the drain line very high above the ground- do you think if that were placed at the winch mark it would drain all the way?
@@scott.charles.taylor you’re so sweet for such a quick reply. Great video btw! I reset it and it drained. It’s running its first full cycle so I’ll see how it looks once it’s done. Thank you!
My Bosch 100 did not come with a felt liner, just some black rubber coating around it. Is that normal? It's loud as hell running at 64 decibels when it's supposed to be at 50. Edit: I just added felt from the old dishwasher, it's still high at 58 DB. Way too loud for something that's supposed to be at 50 DB... Thoughts?
Did yrs come with a junction box already attached? I just took that dishwasher unit out to put another in. So my old one has that junction box. But the new one doesn’t. But has the moulding where it would go. So I’m wondering how to transfer it over? Nevermind the previous Bosch junction box doesn’t fit the new Bosch. Just took an electrical outlet box mounted near the bottom on the back wall behind dishwasher and plugged in the unit with the plug that came with it. Apparently they’ve done away with the hardwire junction boxes that are attached to the unit like the one in the video. Because they don’t want customers to play with electrical. They want an outlet in the wall and just plug it in. Done.
I had 2 options. 1 attach a female plug to the 120v wire/ a 125v/20amp one. That’s extra coverage. Or. 2. Electrical outlet box on the out side of the drywall and run the hardwire into box and connect to an electrical outlet. Then plug it in. With the plug that came with it. I went with #2
Thank you for the great video! I’m installing mine currently and bought that little white pipe to black ABS piece at Home Depot but it doesn’t seem to have a good seal when tight. I’m concerned that if there were a clogged pipe then it would leak. Under normal conditions of course there is no issue due to gravity but have you ever had a clog?
No issue with clogs so far. The caveat is that you’ll always run the risk of leaking with mixing pipes, especially ikea pipes which are not standard in North America. The little white pipe should tighten a good seal around the pipes though. You can always experiment with other adapters/elbows.
Thanks for the video. Those are channel lock pliers, made by vise grips. Vise grips is most known for their ratcheting pliers, which are colloquially called “vise grips”
I installed mines but the faucet started to wiggle after a few months.. any reason why? and white size is the green tool to tighten the bolts underneath the faucet? thanks
I would first double check the instructions manual to ensure you installed it correctly, I would then check the bolt to see if it’s tightened. I’m unsure of the exact bolt size but I know IKEA uses metric in North America so it could be a 10mm-12mm size.
Hi Scott. Great video. What flexible pipe did you get? I scheduled a plumber because i thought i needed to cut a pipe. This video is exactly what i needed. I can do this myself if i can find the same pipe you used.
Hi Sandy, it will depend on the type of pipe you have in your home. I only used flexible pipe because in this case it was cast iron and you can’t glue plastic to it. If you have plastic -> plastic my recommendation would be to measure your pipe diameter and bring your ikea piece to Home Depot and buy a few different 90 degree pipes. You can always return the pieces you don’t end up using. Ask an assistant what type of pipe they would recommend to ensure it follows code.
I used a clear 100% silicone to glue the sink to the cabinet. For the sink to the wall, it is recommended you use a white 100% silicone. You want something that is made for bathrooms, so it's 100% waterproof and won't mold.
Hi! I see you showed that you had clearance on the bottom drawer. How was the clearance with the top drawer? I am reading reviews and worrying about the functionality.
The top drawer is pretty shallow and doesn’t have much height, but there’s still lots of clearance for the pipes, it’s how IKEA builds them with efficient of space in mine.
How are you folks containing the standing water? I might have to get a new machine. 12yo. But I'm almost certain that it's a simple clog. Can't deal with it like you mentioned initially. My filter/trap needs full disassembly. My next machine will have access.
I got lucky with mine, first attempt with heavy duty anchors proved I was wrong. I used four inch screws and hit the studs on an angle. Solid as anything. Awesome video.
Easy enough when you've got a modern house with the correct lines on the house-end. When you've got an older house, you've got to figure out those too... so far I haven't found answers.
Greetings from🇨🇦. Dec 2023. Just spotted your video. Thanks indeed for the detailed procedure, and added advice to use baking soda, and a vinegar flush. Your machine resembles my Frigidaire Gallery GLTF1240AS0 which is also with a Frigidaire dryer stacked on top. Thanks again.
thanks for the video:) can you tell me how I can remove the cover on the back so that I can reach and loosen the screw behind it using an Allen key so that I can remove the mixer tap control lever? I would like to clean the mixer tap. Thank you!
Hey, I’m not sure what you’re trying to do, or if the mixer tap is serviceable. If you’re just trying to remove the mixer you can use a vice grip over a soft towel. Otherwise you might have to Google how to do that.
