Cove Dishwashers
Cove dishwashers clean to a higher standard. They are built
to ensure that every dish and utensil—including plastic
containers, heavy saucepans, wire whisks, and even delicate
china plates—emerge from the dishwasher spotlessly clean
and dry. With a vast array of custom wash and dry options
and interiors that adjust to accommodate any size or com-
bination of dishes, Cove offers a clean you will never have
to second-guess. Both models can be fully integrated with
custom cabinetry or stainless steel panels to complement any
kitchen design.

COVE DISHWASHERS
OPENING WIDTH
Cove dishwashers accommodate varying opening widths.
A 235/8"(60 cm) width provides minimum reveals and is ideal
for new construction. A 24" (610) width is also common;
however, reveals for a 24" (610) opening will be larger than
the reveals for a 235/8"(60 cm) opening unless the panel
width is adjusted accordingly. Refer to page 7 for more
information.
OPENING HEIGHT
Cove dishwashers accommodate varying opening heights.
A 341/2"(876) height is typical. The unit allows for 7/8"(22) of
total height adjustment. Refer to page 4 for more informa-
tion.
OPENING DEPTH
Allow for panel thickness when planning the nished
opening depth. Panels thicker than 3/4"(19) require addi-
tional depth if the unit is being installed ush. A minimum
31/2"(89) nished return is required on all sides of the
opening. Framed cabinets require additional nished ller
material behind the face frame for a proper installation.
Refer to the illustration.
