What a GE Dishwasher Technician Deals With
Many models use removable fine and ultra fine filters at the bottom of the tub that the owner must take out and rinse, and some water sitting in the sump is normal on ultra fine filter models. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Does Not Drain
The UltraFresh System empties the water sump after the cycle and uses a fan to pull fresh air through the tub to limit odor. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile Dishwashers
