How your dishwasher works \u2026 what you can wash in it and what you can’t \u2026 can be very confusing. We are here to help answer the 4 common myths about dishwashers that you might not know.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 4 common myths are…<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Myth #1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dishwashers fill up with water like traditional washing machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Anyone who opens their dishwasher door in mid-wash will see a surprisingly small amount of water – less than a bowl-full in the base of the machine. This is because a dishwasher actually cleans and reuses small amounts of water to be ultra-efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myth #2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dishwashers do not clean pots, pans and cookware properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Heavily soiled items like pots, pans and cookware should be washed in an intensive cycle with higher temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myth #3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dishwashers use a lot of energy and water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Using a dishwasher uses less energy and water than handwashing. A modern dishwasher on average uses seven times less water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Myth #4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Glasses get damaged in the dishwasher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fact #4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Glassware is generally suitable for the dishwasher. However, depending on the type of glass and the conditions in the machine, in a few instances the glass may become cloudy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
