Installer refuses to convert my portable dishwasher Author: Cocktail (Non-US) My portable GE dishwasher, only 2-3 yrs old, is to be built in as part of a kitchen reno, and I was about to order the correct conversion kit for this model of dishwasher. But I've just learned that the kitchen installer is refusing to install the dishwasher, saying that the installation tends to fail sooner or later. He doesn't want to take the risk of having to replace the dishwasher. Of course I could find a plumber to do this part of the work, but need to understand the particular problem, and risk, in converting and installing a portable model. I'm not able to communicate directly with the installer as he's a third-party in my dealings with the hardware chain that's handling the whole reno. Can you please shed some light on this and suggest how the work could be done effectively?

They are the same machine with the same fill valve and the same drain pump. The only difference is the electric plug and the combo fill/drain hose that attaches to the faucet.
Oh, the outer cabinet as well. No big deal to strip the outer cover, remove the electric plug cord and remove the water in and water out hoses. Replace the drain hose with standard dishwasher drain hose, screw a 3/8 male x 3/8 compression 90 into the water fill valve and you are good to go. There are 2 clips on the top of the machine to secure it to the underneath of the counter. Yours may or may not be there. Re: Installer refuses to convert my portable dishwasher Author: steve_g (CA) The one time that I was asked to convert a portable to built-in was, as Packy said, not a big deal. But converting all those items took time, more time than I thought it was worth.
The additional labor charges would've made a dent in the price of a new DW. I'm not crazy about installing used appliances. I'll do it if the customer insists, but putting a used DW is a new kitchen is sorta like putting a hot dog on the caviar. Re: Installer refuses to convert my portable dishwasher Author: Luigi (Non-US) With reference to Packy's comments, do I understand correctly that the outer cover (sides and back) of the portable dishwasher have to be removed in order to install it as a built-in unit?
I have a GE portable dishwasher that I got as a gift a year ago and never used. Now I am renovating my kitchen and I would like to install it under a new countertop. I have purchased the conversion kit and I notice that in Step 7 of the instructions, the outer cabinet has to be removed. However, in the remaining instruction steps, it is not clear whether the outer cabinet has to be put back on the unit prior to installation under the countertop.

From Packy's comments I understand that the outer cover (sides and back) of the portable dishwasher has to be removed in order to install it as a built-in model.
