It's nothing major really - if connected under your sink it simply presses on to the spigot on your sink u-bend, if it goes via a stand pipe on your wall it consists of a smaller pipe (the drain hose) sliding 4-6 inches in/out of your stand pipe (the larger pipe fixed to your wall).

I wouldn't be concerned about flooding your house unless you chose to not reconnect them in such a way- it's as much the same as being concerned about your toaster not working tomorrow incase you didn't plug it in properly

That said, I would much rather have no toast than a wet floor!


If you have an extended warranty and eventually look to book an engineer for such an issue, just be very weary as the actions I have listed are classed as user-maintenance and many companies will look to claim a no-fault-found fee and call out & labour charges could apply.

I doubt it will ever get that far but just a heads up from someone who has worked on that patch
