I have a Whirpool water softener and was wondering about the small drain hose on it (the one that uses a pump). Right now it has some copper pipe running lord knows where to drain it.
I have a vertical 1 1/2 " PVC pipe that I use for my washing machine rubber hose drain.
Can I use this pipe for the water softener drain also? Or would that be a possible problem of that water getting back into the washer some how?
The water softener is right next to the washer and hence, the pvc drain pipe so it sure would be handy.
If that's a no-no, I also have a utility sink close by, I suppose I could use that?
THANK YOU.
