How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service
- Machine will not reach final-rinse temperature
- Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- 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.
If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking
Hand soap, dish soap or laundry detergent can make a dishwasher over-suds and spill water onto the floor; use only automatic dishwasher detergent. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
A dishwasher must be grounded; if the home wiring lacks a ground or the plug does not fit the outlet, a licensed electrician should correct it rather than modifying the plug. Source: Whirlpool - Dishwasher User Instructions
