How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Dishwasher
- Dishes coming out with film or spots
- Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
- Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
- Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly
Commercial dish machines come from specialist manufacturers, so ask whether the company works on your brand and can get parts for it.
