Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

There are some dishwasher care tips to extend its longevity and keep your dishes sparkling. Not overloading your dishwasher is key to letting water and soap move freely through the unit. Too much soap can stress your dishwasher unnecessarily, causing it to break down sooner. 

Cleaning your dishwasher is essential for its performance, so every three to six months, put two cups of white vinegar in a dishwasher-safe cup on the top rack and run a complete cycle. When done, place ¼ cup of baking soda inside and run a short cycle to eliminate any lingering odors.

To extend the lifespan, clean filters regularly, run cleaning cycles with vinegar, avoid overloading, and check for leaks.

The correct water temperature for your dishwasher depends on the washing phase. When water enters the machine, it should be around 120 degrees Fahrenheit, but no hotter than 150 degrees. During the wash cycle, the machine will heat the water to between 130 and 140 degrees. If your dishwasher has a sanitizing cycle, the water can reach a temperature of up to 180 degrees.

To create a siphon break and remove any chance of dirty sink water or water that backs up into the sink from getting into your dishwasher, your dishwasher drain hose needs to have a high loop or an air gap device as part of its installation. All building codes require at least a high loop. In many places, it’s necessary to install an air gap device to meet the code.

A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters.
