The OATEY wall box allows combination connections. In our vacation house, the laundry is in the basement, the water comes down and the drain goes out the bottom.

OATEY Center Drain
High impact polystyrene.
•4 support brackets.
•Easy drain knockout.
•Top mount knockouts.
You install the box upside down and use the top knockout as a bottom knockout.
