Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Installation includes leveling the unit, connecting water and electrical lines, securing the unit, and testing for function and leaks.

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.
