Maintenance Tips for your Dishwasher

During the holiday season, your dishwasher runs on overtime. Huge holiday meals and lots of company means a dishwasher is running 24/7. It’s a season when you do NOT want your dishwasher to break! Avoid dishwasher repair in Dallas with these tips from Appliance Rescue:

Do a Pre-Rinse:

Your dishes don’t have to be spotless when they go in the dishwasher, but make sure you wash off the majority of the food to prevent the filters in your dishwasher from becoming clogged with food particles.

Run Hot Water:

A dishwasher runs most efficiently when the water is nice and hot from the get-go. Before starting a load of dishes, run the warm water in the sink until it’s hot. This will ensure that hot water immediately flows to your dishwasher when the cycle starts – getting dishes cleaner.

Freshen with Vinegar:

About one a week, run an empty dishwasher with a cup of vinegar poured into the bottom of the dishwasher. The vinegar will freshen and clean food particle buildup.

Clean the Dishwasher Trap:

Make it a habit that every time you refill the rinse aid, you clean the filters. Remove the filters and rinse off any buildup. Look in the trap below and see if there are any chunks of food that need to be disposed of as well.

Don’t Overload:

As is the case with most appliances, don’t overdo it. If there are too many dishes stuffed into the dishwasher, the sprayer may not be able to clean each in full.

3 Keys to Maximizing your Refrigerator's Potential

So what do we use our refrigerators for, anyway? Isn’t the goal to keep food fresher, longer?

If you want to keep food fresher longer- and maximize the life of your refrigerator – then consider these simple, every day tips from Appliance Rescue in Dallas, Texas:

·      Clean the Compressor Coils:

Compressors, or evaporators as some manufactures call them – are at the heart of the functionality of your refrigerator. Check your manufacturer’s owners’ guide to locate the coils, then use a coil brush – available at most appliance shops – to clean them with ease. It only takes a few minutes, but by cleaning the coils you are helping the refrigerator run more efficiently and last longer. A good rule of thumb is to perform this step every 6 months.

·      Give Your Refrigerator a Good Wipe Down:

At least once a month, wipe down the inside of the refrigerator with a damp cloth to remove gunk and spills that may have built up. Pay close attention to the door gaskets, as they are frequently overlooked, but should they get sticky and dirty, they may not seal as well, leaking air and causing lapses in performance.

·      Don’t Overload the Refrigerator:

Refrigerators are designed to be filled with delicious goodies, but don’t overfill it. A key to freshness and efficiency is the proper air flow within the refrigerator. Not to mention – an inefficient refrigerator means higher utility bills.
