How Samsung Dishwashers Are Built

Samsung dishwashers use one of three filter setups (a removable fine filter, a twist-lock cylindrical micro filter, or a non-removable filter), and an incorrectly reassembled filter can cause drain or overflow errors. Source: Samsung US - How to clean your Samsung dishwasher

Dishwasher Notes for Minneapolis, MN
Minneapolis Water Works (City of Minneapolis Public Works), which supplies Minneapolis, reports hardness of about 93 mg/L (5.4 grains per gallon) total hardness as CaCO3 in plant effluent, monthly average. 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: Minneapolis Water Works Monthly Plant Effluent Water Analysis, June 2026
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
