    Hi there,

    I’ve just bought a Hotpoint TCFS83BGG tumble dryer. It’s great!

    In the manual it says this:

    http://docs.hotpoint.eu/_doc/F085166_TCFS_83B_GP_MANUAL.pdf

    “If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to empty the water container. If the dryer is stacked onto or installed next to a washing machine it can share the same drain. The height of the drain must be less than 3’ (1 m) from the bottom of the dryer. Remove existing hose from position shown in picture A and fit a suitable length of hose and connect as shown in picture B.”

    Firstly, the picture in the manual doesn’t quite match up, I assume they’ve slightly modified the design. But which tube do I remove, the black tube or the clear tube?

    Second, what do I replace it with? It’s quite short as is so won’t reach the drain – but do Hotpoint have a spares kits? I’ve tried searching but can’t find anything obvious.

    Thanks!
