The dishwasher makes life easier for its owners, saving a lot of time that would have to be spent on washing dishes even in a small family. And breaking the dishwasher is always inappropriate! One of the most common problems is that the dishwashing tablet does not dissolve.
Types of Dishwasher Tablets
- single and double layer;
- combined.
The most practical of them are combined for dishwashers. They contain all the necessary components for the full cleaning of dishes:
- detergents;
- rinse conditioner;
- regenerating salt.
5 reasons why the tablet does not dissolve
- Some of the most budgetary models of dishwashers do not support the use of a certain type of detergent, this may be the reason why the tablet does not dissolve. Read the instructions for your dishwasher which detergents the manufacturer recommends for this particular model.
- You bought low-quality pills or a fake from a well-known company. Try products of a different brand, if this does not happen again - the reason is obvious.
- Using the tablet with a gentle wash program. In this case, the product simply does not have time to completely dissolve during the program.
- Locked dosing compartment lid. Check how easy the automatic dispenser valve opens. If its opening is difficult, the tool can not get out of it and, accordingly, does not dissolve. It often happens that there are too many dishes in the machine, and it closes the dispenser. After the wash cycle is completed, the compartment opens and the dishwasher spits out the tablet safe and sound. To avoid such a nuisance, check that the dishes do not interfere with the opening of the dispenser lid before each start of the dishwasher.
- The dosing compartment is wet. In this case, the tablet (and the powder, too) absorbs moisture, sticks to the bottom of the compartment and can no longer dissolve, or it dissolves too slowly and not completely. In this case, the dishwasher does not even spit out the pill, it remains undissolved in the dispenser.
If you are convinced that your dishwasher does not have any of the above problems, and the tablet still does not dissolve at all or in part, call the repair technician. Perhaps the reason is the lack of water in the dishwasher due to a breakdown of the recirculation pump, inlet valve or clogging of the sprayers. In these cases, it is better not to try to repair your kitchen assistant yourself, but to trust specialists.
