How to Deep Clean and Maintain Your Dishwasher
If your dishwasher isn’t washing dishes properly, you may want to try cleaning the dishwasher itself. Over time, bits of food, grease, detergent, and water minerals can build up in your dishwasher’s filter and on the interior walls. Not only will your dishwasher look grimy and start to smell bad, but it can also leave spots and film on your glasses, dishes, and silverware.
If your dishwasher isn’t clean, it can’t fully do its job. Also, food and grime build-up can damage your unit’s filter and pump, resulting in costly repairs. In this article, we are going to discuss the most effective ways to clean your dishwasher and keep it clean and odor-free. For starters, use a quality dishwasher detergent and rinse aid which can help reduce unsightly spots that can develop on the interior of your dishwasher. Leaving the door open at the end of a cycle can also help prevent mold or mildew from developing along with that stale odor.
