How to Properly Load a Dish Machine to Increase Efficiency

Do you want to know how to increase the efficiency of your dishwasher?

By loading dishes in a certain way, you’ll actually promote cleaning efficiency!

Too often, dish machines are overloaded, and dishes are overcrowded.

Overcrowding leads to one dish blocking another from the wash and rinse jets; this is called shielding.

Shielding prevents dishes from being properly washed and rinsed, leading them to require another wash cycle.

Additional wash cycles mean longer dishware downtime and increased costs.

Proper loading is required to ensure water reaches every dish surface, otherwise dishes won’t get cleaned.

Let’s briefly review 3 proper dish loading techniques:

First: Glasses, cups, and bowls should be turned upside down to avoid filling
Second: Plates and flatware should be stood up edgewise between tines
Third: Avoid shielding by stacking dishes in the same direction, with space between each one
