Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your dishwasher, consider its age, the repair cost, and its warranty status. It is often worth repairing a dishwasher if it is only a few years old, the problem is minor, or the appliance is still under warranty. A common guideline is the 50% rule: if the repair cost is less than 50% of the price of a new unit, a repair is generally recommended. However, if the dishwasher is more than 10 years old or requires frequent repairs, replacement is likely the more cost-effective choice to avoid future issues. For context, a new dishwasher costs between $1,000 and $1,500 on average, while typical repairs cost several hundred dollars. Simple fixes like a damaged gasket or clogged filter can be inexpensive, but major repairs like a new pump or motor can be costly.

The most common reason for a smelly dishwasher is a dirty dishwasher filter. The filter is responsible for catching food while your machine is running to prevent clogs. Over time, that filter gets more and more filled with food particles. Cleaning your dishwasher filter monthly can keep the smell at bay.

Some signs that your dishwasher is going out include:

  • The door no longer latches 

  • Dishes are still dirty after a cycle 

  • Dishes are cold after a cycle 

  • Rust inside or outside the unit 

  • Cracks inside the dishwasher tub

  • Water collecting at the bottom or outside the unit

If your dishwasher is not energy-efficient or is older than 10 years, you should also consider replacing it. Repairing an older model may be more expensive than replacing it with something newer and more energy- or water-efficient.

Water is sitting at the bottom of your dishwasher, likely because the filter is dirty with food debris or because the drain hose has a clog. If the water is still sticking around after following the steps above, it’s time to contact a local plumber.
