Home Problem Solver: Dishwasher Leaves Spots of Film

take a look at tha page above so i hava a better understanding of your prob...

Hmmm, well, I looked at that page, and the whitish film does come off the dishes and stuff with a vinegar rinse. Is there some way I could do a vinegar rinse on a whole dishwasher? There's also a white film on the heating/drying coil at the bottom of the dishwasher and all over the sliding dish racks and silverware basket.

That link and the one on that page that said "Dishwasher not cleaning properly" almost made me think maybe I'm not using enough detergent--or possibly that there's a problem with the water heater, which I think may be wearing out.

Don't tell me I've struck out yet!!

have you noticed that the water in the house is hotter???

[birdgirl73]

Yes, I think so. It does seem like it might be hotter. But I can't see a switch on the heater to turn it down.

[Skink]

is it electric or gas/propane???

Im signing off for now...

elec should have 2 panels,1 top and 1 bottom,,,you need a screw driver to open them... inside is a little dial with an arrow pointing to a temp,,, lower top and bottom 10 degrees... hot water does not rinse well...

I assume gas as the dial is exposed and easeier for someone to fool with it or bump it... it is usually red,,,if so turn it counterclockwise about a 1/2 inch...

[birdgirl73]

It's an electric water heater. I'll get out there with a screwdriver tomorrow when the daylight's at its peak (it's in the back of the garage) and try turning it down. Or I'll get Dave to if there's enough garage light tonight or when he gets home tomorrow.

So if the hot water heater's going and it's been giving us hotter water and not rinsing as efficiently, maybe a new hot water heater might solve the problem? Is there anything I can do to help de-film the dishwasher now? Pour some vinegar in when it's about to rinse?

[Skink]

just run a cycle with vinegar then add again before the rinse... Are you sure no one just changed a setting on the DW??? there is a heater inside the DW and can be set on or off through settings... I be true,,,new DW/Appliances have so many settings it is confusing to me... Maybe the help screwed with it??? I do not think your WH is going bad...

This is a stretch but do you have a thermometer that goes above 180 like a probe for a roast??? test the temp of the water before you go to the garage... put the thermometer in a glass and run the hot water in the glass for like 10 minutes and see what you go up to...

Inherently a WH will get colder as it goes... it may get hotter briefly before it goes because a heating coil may short and get hot,then quickly die,,,No Where close to the time you are having the Prob,,,3 Months???

Now Dr.Bg,,,go take it's temprature...
