How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
Commercial Dishwasher Problems Worth a Call
- Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly
- Water not filling or draining from the tank
Ask any company you call which commercial brands and machine types it services, such as undercounter, door-type or conveyor units.
Before Anyone Touches the Dishwasher
Shut off the dishwasher's water supply during repairs or whenever it is leaking; the valve is usually under the kitchen sink on the branch line that runs to the dishwasher, and it closes by turning clockwise. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Water Shut-Off Location
Built-in dishwashers are typically specified for their own properly grounded 120-volt branch circuit protected by a 15- or 20-amp breaker or time-delay fuse, with no extension cords or adapter plugs. Source: GE Appliances - Built-In Dishwasher Installation Instructions
