How to Load Dishwasher properly – Tips and Tricks for Sparkling Clean Dishes

Are you tired of finding food residue on your supposedly clean dishes after running them through the dishwasher? It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Well, worry no more! In this blog post, we will share some valuable tips and tricks on how to load your dishwasher properly, ensuring sparkling clean dishes every time.

Loading your dishwasher correctly is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it ensures that water and detergent can reach every nook and cranny of your dishes, effectively removing food particles and stains. Secondly, proper loading prevents dishes from touching each other, reducing the risk of chipping or breakage. Lastly, it maximizes the dishwasher's capacity, allowing you to clean more dishes in a single cycle.

 

1. Scrape Off Excess Food

Before loading your dishes, it's essential to scrape off any excess food particles. This prevents clogging the dishwasher's filter and ensures a more efficient cleaning process.

2. Pre-Rinse if Necessary

While modern dishwashers are designed to handle dirty dishes, heavily soiled items may require pre-rinsing. However, avoid rinsing dishes excessively, as it can reduce the effectiveness of the dishwasher detergent.

3. Load Dishes Properly

When loading your dishwasher, follow these guidelines:

  • Top Rack: Place glasses, cups, and small bowls upside down to allow water to reach the inside. Ensure that they are secure and won't flip over during the wash cycle.
  • Bottom Rack: Load plates, pots, pans, and larger items. Face them towards the center, where the water spray is most powerful. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper water circulation.
  • Silverware: Mix forks, spoons, and knives to prevent nesting. Place them with the handles down for better cleaning.
  • Expert Technicians: Our dishwasher repair services are handled by highly skilled and experienced technicians. They have the knowledge and expertise to diagnose and fix a wide range of dishwasher issues.
