Have you ever noticed water remaining in the bottom of your dishwasher after you’ve used it? Since most people lead busy lives and these appliances are designed to relieve you of the tedious task of washing pots and pans, it can be time-consuming and annoying when something goes wrong.
Before calling an engineer, there are a few things you can check, hopefully saving you money and allowing you to move on to more important tasks.
1, The sump filter, which is located at the bottom of the dishwasher and may be clogged up with food and bits from glassware or crockery that may have been chipped or damaged on a previous wash or could have occurred when you are loading the dishwasher quickly in a hurry it is easy to bang things together and chip or even smash plates and glasses some of these pieces could have been overlooked and made worse by the fact that they were damaged during the previous wash.
2, If your drain hose is connected to the U bend under the sink and the waste water exits this way, check the spigot it connects to as blockages often occur there. It’s surprising how quickly it can get blocked in this narrow place. This method is mostly used in modern kitchens with little space, but yours could simply be going out the U bend under the sink.
3, The dishwasher might simply not be level; all dishwashers should be equipped with front-mounted adjustable feet, and if they are set incorrectly, all of the water may be accumulating there. Adjust the feet so the dishwasher tilts back slightly so the water falls toward the pump.
These are likely the first things an engineer will check anyway, so a quick check of the aforementioned items could save you the cost of an engineer’s call out fee.
