How Whirlpool Dishwashers Are Built

An air gap is required where local code mandates one or when the drain connects lower than 20 inches above the floor; otherwise the drain hose is run in a high loop under the counter. Source: Whirlpool - What Is a Dishwasher Air Gap

Whirlpool uses a removable two-part filter, an upper assembly that twists out a quarter turn and a lower filter beneath it, and some models instead use self-cleaning filters that rely on water pressure. Source: Whirlpool - How to Clean the Dishwasher Filters
