Today’s dishwashers are different!

September 23rd, 2008 by admin

Why do dishwashers Dry differently today?

Rinse aid allows dishwashers to use less water with the same amount of CLEANING and DRYING effectiveness, by making the water sheet along dishes more efficiently. Rinse aid, along with heated dry are necessary for good drying performance.

Why has the Wash Performance changed?

To meet today’s energy standards, the Normal Cycles no longer use the excessive amount of water they used in the past. Today, you must choose cycles specific to actual load sizes and soil amounts (Heavy Wash, High Temp Wash, Turbo Zone, Pro Scrub, Pots and Pans, etc.), to achieve good cleaning.

Why are Cycle Times Longer today?

Pumps and motors are very low wattage and use a fraction of the energy of a 7-10 year old dishwasher, however, they must run longer to achieve the same wash performance. It is not abnormal for today’s dishwashers to run 2-3 hours. Even though they run longer, they are NOT using more electricity. In fact, it is quite the contrary.

Why does Hard Water Build Up more today?

If you have hard water, this reduction of water and energy will increase the hard water deposit build-up on your dishes, dishwasher, and its’ components. You can prevent this if you increase the rinse aid setting, use a bit more detergent and regularly use a dishwasher cleaner to keep build-up down.

Service Manuals

September 20th, 2008 by admin

Looking for a repair service manual for your washer or dryer? Maybe it’s your refrigerator or dishwasher that you need a service manual for?

You will find lots of places online that will be happy to sell you a service manual for your washer, but why buy a service manual if you can download it for free?

Not all service manuals can be found online for free, but I can tell you that there are hundreds and maybe even thousands of appliance repair service manuals that can be found online and downloaded for free!

We have put together a very small collection of some very popular service manuals on our Appliance Repair Forum.

Every time we add a new service manual to our collection a new post is created in the Appliance Repair Service Manual Board to let you know about it.

Of coarse we are not the only place online that has service manuals that can be downloaded for free. There are also a number of appliance manufacture sites that have service manuals that can be downloaded for free.

You can find a list of the manufactures in a previous blog post I made back in June.

Dishwasher detergent dispenser does not open

September 13th, 2008 by admin

Do not load cookie sheets, cutting boards, or any large item in your dishwasher that will interfere with the proper operation of the detergent dispenser.

If you soap dispenser does not open and you are sure there is nothing inside that is blocking it from opening then you may need to simply replace the detergent dispenser.
