How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Dishwasher
- Machine will not reach final-rinse temperature
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Water not filling or draining from the tank
- Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
Commercial dish machines come from specialist manufacturers, so ask whether the company works on your brand and can get parts for it.
If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking
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
Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher

Dishwasher Notes for Alexandria, MN
Most dishwasher calls in Alexandria 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.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
