Hello
I am looking to install a slimline dishwasher (integrated) into a cupboard in my kitchen.
The depth of the dishwasher is 550mm and the depth of my cupboard is larger than this. The issue, however, is that the waste pipe which leads from the sink (next door cupboard) comes out quite a bit, decreasing the depth space within the cupboard I want to put the dishwasher in. This makes the actual depth of the cupboard (to the pipe) 510mm, so 40mm short for fitting the dishwasher.
There's quite a bit of space behind the pipe itself (and backboard of the cupboard). So I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on whether it would be feasible for me to push these pipes back closer to the wall?
My initial thought was to change the two 90 degree angle joints to 45 degree angles to reduce the depth it protrudes into the cupboard. If anyone was able to give feedback on this / let me know other ideas, that'd be amazing.
There is a support beam that runs between the two cupboards, hence the need to bring the pipes out a bit in the non-sink cupboard.
I've attached pictures of the pipe in the dishwasher cupboard I want to move back, and the cupboard it leads into (with the sink).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
