What Commercial Dishwasher Repair Covers

Wash and rinse temperaturesCommercial machines have temperature gauges for the wash tank and final rinse. A technician checks those readings against the data plate, since health inspections look at them too.
Wash tank heat and pumpsDoor-type and conveyor machines keep a tank of hot wash water and recirculate it with a large pump. Tank heaters, low-water cutoffs and pump seals are common repair points.
Chemical dispensingDetergent, rinse aid and sanitizer are fed by pumps that are often owned and serviced by a chemical supplier. A machine that runs but leaves film or fails sanitizer tests may need the supplier rather than a repair company.
Fill valves and solenoidsCommercial machines fill and rinse through solenoid valves. Weak rinse pressure, a machine that keeps filling or one that will not fill points to valves, strainers or water pressure.

Commercial Dishwasher Problems Worth a Call

  • Water not filling or draining from the tank
  • Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
  • Leaks under the machine or from the doors
  • Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly

Have the data plate details ready and ask whether the technician works on your machine type before booking.

Before Anyone Touches the Dishwasher

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

Budgeting for Commercial Repairs

Published ranges for dishwasher repairs, for reference when a Lihue company quotes commercial work:

Once a dishwasher is around 10 years old, replacement generally makes more sense than repair. Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dishwasher?

Ranges are published estimates, not quotes. See the dishwasher repair cost guide and how long dishwashers last.

Dishwasher Notes for Lihue, HI

Most dishwasher calls in Lihue come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.

Hawaii has no appliance repair license classification; the Contractors License Board's specialty classifications cover related trades such as plumbing (including fuel gas piping), refrigeration, and ventilating and air conditioning, and a contractor license applies to jobs that need a building, electrical or plumbing permit. Source: Description of Contractor License Classifications (Hawaii DCCA Contractors License Board)

In Hawaii, you can check a license with the Hawaii DCCA Professional and Vocational Licensing public license search or report a problem to the Hawaii DCCA Regulated Industries Complaints Office (RICO).

Questions to Ask a Lihue Technician

  • If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
  • Can you give a written estimate before ordering parts?
  • What is the service call or diagnostic fee, and is it applied to the repair?

Commercial Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Lihue, HI

How fast can a commercial dishwasher be repaired?
It depends on the company and on parts. Ask each company how quickly it can come out and whether it stocks common parts for your machine brand.
Who fixes the chemical dispensers on a dish machine?
Many restaurants lease or receive their detergent, rinse and sanitizer pumps from a chemical supplier, who also services them. If the machine runs but chemicals are not dispensing, check with the supplier before booking a repair visit.
Do home appliance repair companies fix commercial dishwashers?
Some do and some do not. Companies that mention commercial, restaurant or food service work are listed first. When you call, ask whether they work on your machine brand and type, such as undercounter, door-type or conveyor.
