How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Dishwasher
- Machine will not reach final-rinse temperature
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
- Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
Commercial dish machines come from specialist manufacturers, so ask whether the company works on your brand and can get parts for it.
