To install a dishwasher, first measure the dimensions to be sure it will fit, then remove the current dishwasher. Prepare the new model for installation and attach the water supply, then level and adjust the dishwasher’s height. Move it into place, secure it to the cabinets, then connect the power and run a test cycle.

Installing a dishwasher is a task that involves removing your old appliance (if applicable), connecting water lines, connecting electric lines, leveling your machine and running tests to ensure the appliance is functioning properly. If you’re installing a dishwasher for the first time, you can expect the process to take at least two hours.
