How To Keep Your Dishwasher Working Properly.

We rely heavily on our dishwashers. Using your dishwasher can help you save time and money while also guaranteeing that your dishes are cleaned and sanitized more thoroughly than if you were to wash them by hand. To keep your dishwasher running efficiently, remember this advice:

Don’t stop using your dishwasher.

That’s right, MAKE USE OF IT! This is the first and most important thing you can do to keep your dishwasher in good working order. If your dishwasher is not used for an extended period of time, the seals may dry out and crack. This can eventually result in leaks and other problems.

Always use the right water temperature.

For a dishwasher to function properly, the temperature must be at least 130°. Cooler temperatures could leave behind soapy or greasy films. Before turning on your dishwasher, run the faucet until the water is hot. This will improve the wash. To prevent films and residue, you might also want to use a dishwasher rinse aid, especially if your water system produces hard water.

Eliminate rust

Rust can build up in dishwashers, resulting in visibly noticeable rust spots on dishes. All racks should be inspected for rust and replaced as needed because they can deteriorate over time.

Free Clogs and Filter Changes

To get rid of any lingering food particles, filters should be changed frequently. Spray arms should also be examined for any obstructions and cleared of them if necessary.
