We have an integrated Bosch dishwasher which has previously given trouble - contents still dirty at the end of the wash. We had an service guy round to look at it, and he diagnosed it as clogged-up pipework; he showed me before cleaning it (yuk) and that did the job. He advised routine use of those dishwasher-deep-clean detergents to stop the gunk from building up again.
Unfortunately despite using the special cleaner, and being more rigorous about pre-wash plate-scraping, the was has got quite bad again. So - two queries:
- Are all deep-clean agents equal? Eg, I've been using these things from Sainsbury's, at 26p per clean: formatting linkI recently saw some special stuff by Hagesan in a local hardware shop at 6 quid a pop:formatting linkoil, or worth a pop?!
- I find that the water in the sump at the end of the wash (on both sides if the sump filter) is without fail very dirty. Presumably that's what's just been used in the final rinse cycle isn't it? Shouldn't it be pretty well completely clean?
Thanks David
