Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

A dishwasher filter should be replaced every five years, depending on the manufacturer's recommendations and the frequency of use. The exact timing can vary based on factors such as the hardness of your water, how well you rinse dishes before loading them, and how often you clean the filter. Regularly inspect the filter for signs of wear and tear or damage. If the filter appears worn out, damaged, or excessively clogged despite regular cleaning, it should be replaced sooner.

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.

To get rid of standing water in your dishwasher, first try activating the drain mechanism by pressing and holding the cancel button for at least three seconds. If that doesn’t work, you’ll need to do some troubleshooting to drain the standing water from the dishwasher. This will involve shutting off the power, then scooping out the water, cleaning the drain filter, and clearing the air gap. You’ll also want to run the garbage disposal and check the drain hose for clogs.

If the dishwasher is in working condition, start and run a complete cycle with nothing inside. Let it drain and sit overnight before removing the hoses. In theory, it should effectively drain. You may find residual water in the hoses, but you can plug them. If the dishwasher breaks down midcycle it can sometimes be full of water. You’ll need to manually remove the water with a plastic cup before removing the dishwasher.

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
