A dishwasher
is an important appliance in any busy household or place of work, and if when
they break down and cease to work, it can cause real headaches if you don’t
know what the problem is. United Appliance Inc. sends out repair technicians to
repair dishwashers in Los Angeles
and the surrounding area frequently but we often find that the visit could have
been avoided. Sometimes, the problem is as minor as something like a drain clog
and this certainly doesn’t require our dishwasher repair Los Angeles service.
Clogged
Drains
Cogged
dishwashers create many problems such as backups of water, reduce the
efficiency of your dishwasher or even clog the drainage line from your
dishwasher to your kitchen sink. This can be prevented though, if you
diligently care for your dishwasher by taking certain steps to make sure it
stays in tip-top condition. Here are some tips to help you prevent clogged
drains.
Pre-rinse
your Dishes
The easiest
way that you can prevent clogged drains is to pre-rinse everything before you
place it into your dishwasher. You may think this is a waste of time and
unnecessary but it can make a huge difference because placing dishes that have
large amounts of leftover food and debris still clinging to them will only
serve to clog the dishwasher drain. Smaller particles of food will disintegrate
due to the water and heat but the larger particles won’t and this will cause
you headaches later if the line from your sink to the dishwasher becomes clogged.
Clogs can
even go deeper still. You may find after much tinkering, that the clog has
actually gone as deep as the main sewage line and this is when things can get
really messy, or expensive because you will either have to get your own hands
dirty or call out a technician.
Just by
rinsing plates beforehand, you can save yourself a lot of time and money.
Avoid
Putting Small Items into the Dishwasher
When filling
your dishwasher, avoid putting anything small enough to slip through the rack
into the dishwasher. Things like bottle caps, small cups and children’s
utensils should be washed by hand because if one of these items were to slip
through the rack and end up lodging in the drain or the mini-disposal, you
could have problems. Those problems could lead to more repair expenses.
If you treat
your dishwasher with care, you will find that clogs seldom occur and you won’t
need to call for repairs very often at all, if at all. Follow the guidelines
set out here and you won’t have to worry about clogs ruining the harmony of
your household or place of work.
