How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
- Machine will not reach final-rinse temperature
- Dishes coming out with film or spots
Ask any company you call which commercial brands and machine types it services, such as undercounter, door-type or conveyor units.

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
