Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Dishwashers should be cleaned a minimum of once every 3 months, but really it should be done monthly. This is to prevent germ buildup and will help keep your machine running smoothly. Dishwasher maintenance isn’t too difficult, you’ll simply clean the filter, wipe down the spray arms with vinegar or rubbing alcohol, and run the cycle on empty. If there is any debris, you can remove it with a small metal pick. Do not use wood as the tip can break off inside the machine.

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.

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.

Not all dishwasher noises are signs of trouble, as dishwashers naturally make sounds during operation. Normal sounds for a functional dishwasher include humming, swishing, and sloshing. However, if you hear problematic noises such as pounding, drumming, grinding, or rattling, it could be a sign of an underlying issue, and you should consider having a technician inspect your appliance.
