   My wife is used to hearing random grumbles along the lines of "f'n Lou Olah... hope he is rotting in hell..." and so on. Electricians are still fixing where he "helped" neighbors with electrical more than 15 years ago.

   Yes, you can add power under the sink, but I wouldn't turn the dishwasher's single outlet into a splitter without checking the circuit. Before worrying about the drain line, have an electrician check the existing circuit and add an accessible receptacle if local rules allow it. That's how I handled power for my Viomi Vortex 6 Pro. The purifier's load wasn't the hard part; the existing circuit and legal outlet location were.

   We are currently having work done in our house, and the electrician didn’t bother telling us that we should at least cover our couch and other fabric-upholstered furniture. We were clueless and partially spoiled because other subcontractors were very tidy. Anyway, we went to work and got home to a very very dusty house! Every surface was filthy. He “swept” the dining area but that is all he did. And by swept I mean you can see tracks created by a broom. The rest of the house was covered with dust. I spent 3 hours sweeping, mopping, wiping surfaces at least 3x. I told the GC about it and all he said was he’ll talk to him. I have yet to deal with our furniture.

   When I was an electrician, we spent the last 30 or so minutes of the day cleaning. I always see people complaining about electricians leaving a mess but I worked for my dad and he was, no exaggeration, the best electrician in Minnesota, and probably the country. We had one custom homes builder we did work for, but if any other custom builders had a really elaborate build for someone, they would get him over their usual guy. Working for him, I learned every bit of attention to details and keeping the job site clean that so many others lack. I joined the military and needed a TS/SCI clearance for my job and for the 10 years I got to put him on my prior employment list, his position was always “God of Electrical Power.” One time one of the agents interviewing me questioned me about that and I said “ask anyone” and they let it go.

   In my experience me. I just spent 2 hours today cleaning up after the electrician. I don't have a GC it's just me hiring out the work so maybe a little different.
