How KitchenAid Dishwashers Are Built

What Albuquerque Owners Should Know

Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority, which supplies Albuquerque, reports hardness of moderately hard to hard, depending on the sources and blend serving each distribution zone. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair. Source: ABCWUA: Your Drinking Water FAQs
