What a KitchenAid Dishwasher Technician Deals With
Most KitchenAid dishwashers use a two-part manual filter (an upper assembly and a lower filter) that must be removed and rinsed by hand, while select models with the Advanced Clean Water Wash System use a maintenance-free microfiltration setup with a cup that catches hard objects.
