Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Not all dishwashers are 60cm wide, but that tends to be the most common size. 60cm translates into roughly 24 inches, with most home dishwashers being between 22 and 24 inches wide. There aren’t metrics available but it’s been our experience that over 90% of household dishwashers in North America are around 24 inches wide by 24 inches tall.

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.

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.

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.

DIY installation or repair is possible with the right skills and tools, but if not done correctly, it can often lead to water leaks or improper connections.
