KitchenAid Dishwasher Lines and Features

What Makes KitchenAid Dishwasher Repairs Different

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.

KitchenAid calls for the drain hose to loop at least 20 inches above the floor, or to run through an air gap if it connects lower, so dirty water cannot siphon back into the tub. Source: KitchenAid - Checking the Drain Loop Height

What KitchenAid Says to Check First

• Dishwasher not drying. Confirm a heated or fan dry option is selected, especially on quick cycles, and that rinse aid is filled. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Not Drying
• Dishwasher not draining after installation. On a new install, check that the disposer knockout plug is out, the disposer is clear, and the drain hose has a high loop or air gap with no pinches or sharp bends. Source: KitchenAid - Newly Installed Dishwasher Not Draining
