Your commercial dishwashers, glasswashers and potwashers work as hard as you do, therefore that’s why it’s important to keep them maintained.
Preventative maintenance and servicing are important to ensure your warewashing runs smoothly, effectively and efficiently.
Here at DC Products, we have made this handy guide to provide useful tips and advice on the importance of servicing and maintaining your equipment.
Optimal hygiene
Regular maintenance ensures all components, such as filters, and wash tanks, are functioning correctly.
This helps to ensure dishes, crockery, and cutlery are cleaned to the high standards required in commercial kitchens, preventing the spread of bacteria and ensuring food safety.
Smooth and efficient operation
A well-maintained dishwasher operates at its peak efficiency, using the correct amount of water and detergent for each cycle. Also, over time longer wash cycles may be required if the machine is not fully services, cleaned and maintained regularly.
Detecting early issues

Preventative maintenance allows for the early detection of minor issues, such as worn seals or loose connections. Addressing any issues early on by using a professional like DC Products can prevent them from escalating into major, expensive repairs or complete machine failure.
Reduced downtime
Unexpected breakdowns can severely disrupt kitchen operations, leading to delays, and additional staff resource. Regular servicing minimises the risk of such disruptions, ensuring the dishwasher is always available when needed, especially during peak service times.
Minimises wear and tear
Frequent servicing and maintaining of components help to reduce wear and tear on vital parts like pumps, motors, and heating elements. This ultimately prolongs the operational life of the dishwasher, protecting your initial investment.
Optimises energy efficiency
A commercial dishwasher benefits from maintenance to ensure it’s not working harder than it needs to. This can also contribute to lower energy and water consumption over the long term.
