Accepted Answer

There is not a check valve on this particular unit. You need to make sure to run the drain hose all the way up to the top of the counter and then come back down into either your garbage disposal or stand pipe for the drain line to drain. Adding that height to the drain line will prevent water from backflowing into the dishwasher.
