Do I Need A Dishwasher Air Gap?...My States Plumbing Code says YES!!
What happens here
First, take the new disposal hose (typically a 2-foot length with 7/8" ID and 1-1/4" OD). Slide a hose clamp onto one end of the disposal hose. Then, firmly push this end of the disposal hose onto the larger outlet barb of the air gap. Use a 6-in-1 screwdriver or a nut driver to tighten the hose clamp securely around the connection. The demonstrator recommends performing this connection outside the cramped under-sink area to make the process easier.
Goal: This step describes attaching a specialized disposal hose to the larger outlet of the air gap using a hose clamp, preferably before installing the air gap in the sink.
