Please read all of the appliance maintenance tips
below. All of the simple tips are meant to prevent your
appliances from future failure. Appliance repairs can be
costly and 99% of the time the reason for that is improper
usage or lack of very basic maintenance. We strongly encourage
that if your appliance, air conditioning or heating unit
don’t function properly and requires repair, simply
call one of our service technicians who has the knowledge,
experience and right tools to fix it. San Jose Air conditioning

your needs.
Most importantly, however, you can keep your dishwasher
running the way they should merely by following certain
simple preventive maintenance procedures regularly. Not
only will such maintenance help you derive the benefits
of maximum efficiency and performance, but it will also
result in a longer and more trouble-free life for your air
conditioner.
AUTOMATIC DISHWASHERS
maintenance tips
The automatic dishwasher operates by forcing a high-velocity
stream of hot water, mixed with a detergent solution, against
dirty dishes. This jet action combined with the high water
temperature provides a cleaning action that both scrubs
the dishes and eliminates bacteria. The dishwasher then
drains the dirty water away, rinses the dishes with fresh
hot water, and dries the dishes with hot air.
Like most automatic appliances, the dishwasher is controlled
by a timer. The timer is a clock-
Actuated switch which actually contains a number of switching
contacts that can energize different cycles. The clock motor
begins to run as soon as you start the machine, and it continues
to run until the end of the wash cycle. At that point, a
contact opens and breaks the circuit to the timer motor.
Some dishwasher functions are controlled by small electromagnetic
devices called solenoids. Solenoids are coils of wire that
concentrate the magnetic force surrounding any wire which
has current flowing through it- When energized by the timer,
a solenoid attracts a pole or armature; this movement in
turn, carries out some mechanical work. In the dishwasher,
for example, a solenoid located in a water valve allows
water to flow into the machine; the solenoid opens the valve
in much the same way that you would open a faucet. When
the timer contacts to the solenoid circuit open, current
ceases to flow, and the solenoid then shuts the water off.
In most dishwashers, the precise volume of water necessary
for efficient operation is controlled by a small regulator
in the water valve known as a flow washer. This regulator
reduces flow within the line to approximately 20 pounds
per square inch,
Much lower than the pressure found in most c-7* water mains.
Since the flow washer- controls water pressure and the timer
controls the length time that the water inlet is open, dishwasher
can engineer machines that utilize a spec quantity of water
every time they are operated.
Dishwashers use only hot water. Ideally, water temperature
should be between 140 and 160 degrees for proper cleaning
of your dishes. If the temperature is less than 140 degrees,
the dishwashing detergent cannot dissolve properly and certain
greases cannot emulsify entirely. The result of course,
is poor cleaning performance. Consequently, the water temperature
is one of the firs: things that you should check if your
dishwasher ever fails to clean properly. You can use a candy
or a meat thermometer in the dishwasher to measure the water
temperature.
Always measure the water temperature during the second
wash cycle. If the water temperature in your dishwasher
is too low, then raise the thermostat setting on your water
heater. The dish, washer heating element cannot compensate
for are insufficiently heated water supply; the element's
main responsibility is to maintain the water temperature
during normal wash periods. If there were n-- heating element,
the spraying action of the way-=-- against the cool sides
of the cabinet could lower the water temperature substantially
during the course of a single wash period.
Most dishwashers have detergent dispensers that permit
the cleaning agent to enter the water at the proper time.
Since there are usually two wash cycles, each must have
its own charge o- detergent. Therefore, one side of the
filled dispense-is usually open, while the other is latched
shut. When- the dishwashing cycle begins, the hot water
flushes the detergent from the open container; after the
second wash cycle begins, a solenoid (or bimetal stir unlatches
the second compartment, allowing the second charge of detergent
to be discharged into the water.
After its wash cycle, the dishwasher goes through several
rinse periods to remove any remaining detergent or food
particles. In addition, some dishwashers provide two other
actions during the final rinse period: one is a sanitizing
treatment, and the other reduces spotting.
The sanitizing feature utilizes an electric heating element
to raise the water temperature to at least 150 degrees to
reduce the bacteria count. The sanitizing cycle turns the
timer motor off and allows the heating element to remain
on until a bimetal thermostat which senses the water temperature
— closes, turning the timer motor on again. Since
it takes about one minute to raise the dishwasher's water
temperature one degree, it could take around 30 minutes
to heat the water temperature up to the level required by
the sanitizing cycle, if your home's hot water temperature
is low (around 120 degrees, for instance). This is another
good reason to be sure back into position and press the
start switch. The ram will travel upward, at which point
you can open the container drawer and rearrange the trash.
Then, you can start the entire cycle all over again.
