What Commercial Dishwasher Repair Covers
Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service
- 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
Ask any company you call which commercial brands and machine types it services, such as undercounter, door-type or conveyor units.
Leaks and Safe Shutoff
A leak from the water supply line tends to show up as dampness under the front of the unit; leaks at the door often trace back to a dirty, loose or damaged gasket, a bent or loose latch, or a unit that is not level. 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

Dishwasher Notes for Louisville, KY
Louisville Water Company, which supplies Louisville, reports hardness of about 115 mg/L as CaCO3 (6.7 grains per gallon), moderately hard. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
