this company is great to work from office staff to the installers. Andy, an installer, does not try to sell what you don't want. He will make a recommendation' if asked but doesn't push you to do more than what you want.

Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Local plumbing codes and manufacturer recommendations typically dictate the minimum distance between a sink and a dishwasher. This is generally 18 to 24 inches, providing enough room for easy loading and unloading of dishes without hindering the sink's function. Maintaining this separation not only adds convenience but also reduces the chances of water damage and optimizes plumbing connections.

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

You should follow the instructions listed on the detergent packaging and in your dishwasher user manual. Often, this means inserting the tablet or pod into the detergent dispenser (and not in the bottom of the dishwasher). If you put the pod anywhere else, it might dissolve too early in the cycle and fail to clean your dishes properly.

Yes, vinegar is an excellent homemade solution to clean a dishwasher. Its acidity will cut through any buildup, while its natural deodorizing capabilities will take care of any nasty smells.

Regular use helps keep interior dishwasher parts functioning properly and the interior clean. Try to run your machine at least once every two weeks as part of your dishwasher cleaning schedule.

Every six months, running two cups of white vinegar through your dishwasher (place the vinegar where you put detergent) will help deep clean the unit to boost performance.
