What Commercial Dishwasher Repair Covers

Downtime mattersFor a restaurant, school or bar, a dish machine out of service slows the whole kitchen. Ask about parts availability and how quickly a company can return for a second visit.
Undercounter, door-type and conveyorUndercounter units behave much like heavy home dishwashers, while door-type and conveyor machines add hoods, curtains, tank heaters and motors. Mention the type when you call.
Wash tank heat and pumpsDoor-type and conveyor machines keep a tank of hot wash water and recirculate it with a large pump. Tank heaters, low-water cutoffs and pump seals are common repair points.
Booster heatersHigh-temperature dish machines rely on a booster heater to bring final-rinse water up to sanitizing temperature. A machine that cannot reach rinse temperature often has a failed element, thermostat or contactor.

Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service

  • Water not filling or draining from the tank
  • Chemical pumps not priming or dispensing
  • Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly
  • 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.

Around Portsmouth

Most dishwasher calls in Portsmouth 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.

Ohio has no state license for appliance repair; the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses commercial contractors in plumbing, hydronics, refrigeration, HVAC and electrical, and residential contractor work is generally overseen locally.

In Ohio, you can check a license with the Ohio Department of Commerce OCILB Company Licensee Lookup or report a problem to the Ohio Attorney General, Consumer Protection Section.

Questions to Ask a Portsmouth Technician

  • Can you give a written estimate before ordering parts?
  • What is the service call or diagnostic fee, and is it applied to the repair?
  • Do you also handle the water supply and drain connections, or should I call a plumber for those?
