Your commercial dishwasher is likely due for professional service if you notice any of these warning signs:

• Unusual noises during operation (grinding, rattling, or buzzing)
• Water pooling around the base of the machine
• Significantly longer cycle times than normal
• Dishes coming out with food residue or a spotty appearance
• Strange odors coming from the appliance even after cleaning

Don't ignore these signals! Small issues can quickly escalate to major problems that could result in costly downtime for your kitchen operations. Contact your local Mr. Appliance service professional at the first sign of trouble to avoid more extensive repairs.

When your commercial kitchen's dishwasher breaks down, it might be tempting to save money or time by attempting repairs yourself. However, professional commercial dishwasher repair offers significant advantages that DIY approaches simply can't match.

Commercial dishwashers are complex machines with specialized electrical components, water systems, and programming. Mr. Appliance service professionals have years of experience working with all major brands and models; we can quickly diagnose problems that might otherwise take hours to identify.

Additionally, improper repair attempts can void manufacturers’ warranties and potentially create safety hazards in your kitchen. Water and electricity don't mix well, and DIY repairs gone wrong could lead to:

• Safety risks: Electrical shock hazards, water damage, or even fire risks
• Extended downtime: What starts as a simple repair can become complicated without proper knowledge
• Higher costs in the long run: Temporary fixes often fail quickly, requiring additional repairs

Whatever the issue, your local Mr. Appliance team will ensure the job is done right the first time.

If your commercial dishwasher encounters an issue, avoid these common mistakes that can often make the problem worse:

• Avoid continuing to run a leaking dishwasher. This can cause water damage to your floors and potentially create electrical hazards.
• Steer clear of residential-grade detergents in commercial machines. These can cause excessive foaming, damage components, and void warranties.
• Pay attention to strange noises from your dishwasher, as they typically indicate mechanical problems that will only get worse with continued use.
• Don't attempt to modify temperature settings beyond manufacturer specifications. Proper sanitization temperatures are crucial for health code compliance.
• Under no circumstances should you disable safety features like door switches, even temporarily, as these protect your staff from potential injuries and your business from liability issues.

Instead of these risky approaches, contact your local Mr. Appliance team. A service professional can properly diagnose and repair your commercial dishwasher quickly.

To maximize your dishwasher’s lifespan, start by training all staff on correct machine operation. This includes proper loading techniques to avoid overloading, which strains motors and pumps.

Clean the machine thoroughly at the end of each business day:

• Remove and rinse all screens, filters, and traps.
• Check spray arms for debris and clear any blockages.
• Wipe down door seals with a soft, damp cloth.
• Leave the door slightly ajar overnight to prevent mold growth.

Water quality significantly impacts dishwasher performance. Hard water creates scale buildup that damages heating elements and clogs spray jets. Consider installing a water softener or filtration system if your facility has hard water issues.

Finally, monitor detergent usage carefully. Too much detergent causes excess foam and residue buildup, while too little results in poor cleaning performance.

A Mr. Appliance service professional can provide additional advice based on your dishwasher model and water conditions during your next commercial dishwasher service.
