What Commercial Dishwasher Repair Covers
Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Water not filling or draining from the tank
- Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
- Dishes coming out with film or spots
Commercial dish machines come from specialist manufacturers, so ask whether the company works on your brand and can get parts for it.
Water, Power and Safety First
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
Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
