Hey everyone. My wife has finally won out and we are going to buy a dish washer.
My questions are regarding installing.
I understand how to do it. Tap into hot water and to the drain. Also what about electrical. Mine would sit where a cabinet is now. So I'd have to cut that out to fit properly and there's an electrical outlet on the wall right above the counter top. Ideally I guess you would cut a hole in the wall and run wires from outlet down to the dish washer. Issue is the cabinets are wood on the back to so I'd have to cut through that and then through the wall which I believe it plaster. Now instead of all of that could I take a little hole saw drill a hole in the top of the counter at the back on the counter top and then run a power cord off the washer and plug it into the outlet? I'd of course make the whole nice and neat and would like to find a way to cap it so it looks as professional as possible. What do you guys think? I'm only asking the question I know not much about carpentry and don't pretend to know much about it I just know it has to get installed and it's my job to get it done. All help is appreciated.
