Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Depending on your available time and skillset, there are some aspects of dishwasher repair you can DIY. Remember that dishwashers use water and electricity, which can cause potentially hazardous situations. However, there are some things you can do to reduce your overall repair cost, such as:

  • Cleaning the spray arm

  • Unclogging the float

  • Replacing the door gasket

  • Cleaning the door filter

  • Adjusting the door latch

While the exact appearance of the filter will depend on your dishwasher brand, it often consists of a cylindrical or rectangular mesh or plastic component. The filter is located at the bottom of the dishwasher beneath the lower spray arm. It includes a combination of a coarse filter, which traps larger food particles, and a finer filter, which captures smaller debris. The filter assembly may be a single unit or a multi-part system that can be twisted or snapped out for cleaning.

Any drain in your house requires a water trap to prevent sewer gases from entering the home. Dishwashers don’t have an internal water trap, so they must use an external P trap. The most convenient P trap for the dishwasher is already in the plumbing under your sink.

The frequency for cleaning your dishwasher filter depends on your usage habits. If you run the dishwasher daily and don't scrape or rinse dishes before loading, you should clean the filter about once a month. For those who use it only once or twice a week and rinse items beforehand, cleaning it every three to six months may be sufficient. A clear sign that your filter needs cleaning is a musty smell, even after a wash cycle. Regularly cleaning the filter is important to prevent food buildup and clogging over time. It can be helpful to add this maintenance task to your calendar to stay on schedule.

Some common signs you have a dirty dishwasher filter are:

  • Food sticking to your dishes even after a thorough wash cycle

  • Odor coming from your dishwasher

  • Stains left on dishes and utensils

  • Water pooling in your dishwasher

  • Food stuck to parts of the dishwasher, like the racks, walls, or sprayer arm
