I was at my in-laws new lake house and we turned on the dishwasher. I was in another room watching tv and began hearing a loud gurgling noise. I went into the kitchen to discover the noise coming out of the drains in the kitchen sink. I looked underneath to see how the builder hooked up the dishwasher and I see why there is so much noise, as the incoming drain empties into the crossover piece between the sink bowls.
Is this the proper way to bring the drain line in? The drain line is brought up high in an arc to prevent drain backflow. But, this is awfully noisy especially in this house with a very large kitchen, all granite tops, hardwood floors, and 12 foot ceilings. It simply echoes around the main floor.
Here is a photo of the way it is hooked up. There is no access underneath the floor to the drain line as the ceiling below is finished drywall.
