Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, your kitchen flooring should extend under your dishwasher. It is essential for creating a level and stable surface for the appliance and preventing moisture from seeping into the subflooring, which is costly to repair. Working with a kitchen contractor will ensure the new flooring accounts for the height of the dishwasher so it sits under the countertop properly without any glaring gaps.

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.

Depending on your available time and skillset, there are some aspects of dishwasher repair you can DIY. Remember that dishwashers use water and electricity, which can cause potentially hazardous situations. However, there are some things you can do to reduce your overall repair cost, such as:

  • Cleaning the spray arm

  • Unclogging the float

  • Replacing the door gasket

  • Cleaning the door filter

  • Adjusting the door latch

This depends on how often you use the dishwasher and how clean the dishes are before entering the appliance. If you run the dishwasher daily and don’t scrape or rinse items before loading, for instance, clean the filter every month. If you use it just once or twice a week and rinse dishes before loading, clean the filter every three to six months. Jot this simple maintenance task on a calendar and stick to the schedule.

Yes, if your filter is damaged or simply too debris-filled to be of use, replace it with a new component. Check the instruction manual that accompanied the dishwasher for information as to the specific part. There are many online marketplaces that sell these parts, but perform due diligence to ensure you buy the right one.
