Dishwasher - Hot water fill

[RugbyMadNut]

Hi All,

I'm replacing an old dishwasher that came with the house - it looks like something from the 80s!
It's a Cannon Hot Fill 8s.

This means that there is a readily available hot water 3/4 BSP inlet hose (and drain).

Looking online I can see that there is very little choice for a new hot fill dishwasher and the vast majority seem to be cold fill.

Can I connect the hot fill hose to a cold fill machine?
The hot water comes from a hot water tank in the bathroom upstairs. The standing water in the pipe between the machine and the tank would probably fill the machine and not be very hot anyways.

I'm probably just trying to avoid plumbing in a cold water inlet when there is a convenient hot water inlet already there.

Thank you!

I very much doubt the new machine would work.....generally they require cold water at mains pressure.
