Connecting a dishwasher drain pipe

uncle-mofo

I'm looking to connect up a dishwasher in our nearly rented house. I'm a bit stuck as to where to connect up the drain line under our sink, it looks like the washing machine is taking up the only spigot, do I need to add another one somewhere or is there another solution?

You will need to change one of the traps for one with an additional appliance spigot connection.
Probably easier to change the right side one and leave the left one undisturbed.

You are looking for a 1-1/2" '(inch and a half) P waste trap with a single spigot.

There's a connector there in on the left in the second photo. You can see where the existing drain pipe heads off to the dishwasher in the top left of photo #4

Odd set-up mind...

It's not an odd set up, much better than the rubbish that comes with some sinks.
The left already has a spigot which is taking the washing machine, o.p. needs an additional connection for a new dishwasher, so a second spigot is required which will require changing one of the traps, either the left with a double spigot trap or the right with a single spigot.
