How KitchenAid Dishwashers Are Built
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.

Local Notes for Brentwood
Brentwood Water Services (City of Brentwood), buying treated Cumberland River water from Metro Water Services and Harpeth Valley Utilities District, which supplies Brentwood, reports hardness of about 98 ppm on average (range 80-128 ppm), moderately hard. 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.
