Why does the water from the disposal side of the double sink drain into the dishwasher?

Probably the drain hose from the dishwasher isn't high enough to keep the water from running back . The hose should be above the level of the disposal at some point. Some states require an "air gap" which is a device that is placed in the drain line to prevent this. Some states require a simple high loop in the drain hose. Many dishwasher manufacturers are now installing backflow preventers in the dishwasher.

How do you level a floor with a drain?

Prior to caulking the lead joint I use a level then pour the joint and tap each side of the lead so the drain does not shift then finish packing the lead and trim the lead with a trimming iron...same as for CI roof drains except roof drains are slightly counter sunk to allow for the 4 PSF sheet lead flashing


Is there a shower drain with a built in check valve?

You can get a back water valve. It is similar to a check vale/ the back water valve goes on your main sewer line out side of home. It is desined to stop black water form coming into your home if main line stops up. Thay do make a device that can be installed into an exsisting drain it lets water through your drain but will not let water back up through you shower drain.

Moved into a new home where is the dishwasher underground drainage pipe?

It is normal for dishwashes to discharge below the sink into the "S bend" (otherwise called the trap) this trap is there to stop the smell from the drain coming into the house. Often there is a spigot on the trap onto which the hose from the dishwasher fits, so if this is how yours is done you will find a roughly 20mm hose under your sink coming from the direction of the dishwasher and going into the side of the sink trap, also you will hear the waste water discharging into the trap as the dishwasher cycles.


How do you drain water from the frame of your VW cabrio?

There are 3-4 drains on the under side of the frame on each side. These can become clogged from leaves and mud and other things. When they get clogged water cannot escape and can enter the cabin. Clear these drains and water will come out of the frame. I used a thin nail and a plastic zip tie.
