Dishwasher Repair & Service

Consider replacement when: repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, the equipment is over 75% of its expected lifespan, parts are no longer available, the equipment frequently breaks down, or energy costs are significantly higher than modern alternatives. Repair when: the equipment is relatively new, the repair is straightforward, and the total repair cost is well below replacement value. A qualified technician can help evaluate your specific situation.

Critical food safety temperatures: Cold holding — 40°F (4°C) or below for refrigeration; freezer 0°F (-18°C) or below. Hot holding — 140°F (60°C) or above for steam tables and food warmers. Cooking temperatures vary by food type (145°F-165°F). Dishwasher final rinse — 180°F (82°C) for high-temp machines. Any equipment consistently failing to maintain these temperatures is both a safety risk and a health code violation.

CFESA (Commercial Food Equipment Service Association) certification is the industry standard for commercial kitchen equipment technicians. Certified technicians have passed rigorous examinations on electrical, refrigeration, and gas systems. When you hire a CFESA-certified tech, you can trust they have the knowledge to properly diagnose and repair commercial kitchen equipment safely and effectively.
