Dishwashers

DishwasherYour dishwasher supply line and drain line can leak in just the same way that the supply line and drain line on your kitchen sink can leak. However, the dishwasher supply line and drain line are not as easily accessible and the leak may not be visible. You may not know about the problem until water has already damaged your kitchen cabinets or floors.

You can prevent this from happening by calling Atlanta Plumbing Plus at 770-447-0374. One of our fully licensed and experienced plumbers can inspect your dishwasher supply line and drain line as part of a routine plumbing inspection of your home. We can even make the necessary repairs the same day if a leak is found.

If the leak is coming from the dishwasher itself, however, it may be time to replace it with a new energy-efficient dishwasher that can save gallons of water and hundreds of dollars a year in energy costs. Newer dishwashers are also much better insulated than older models and surprisingly quiet when they run. If you have an open-plan home with no walls separating the kitchen from the family room, one of the newer models of dishwashers that runs at less than 50 decibels (dB) may be a great investment for your home.

Most often, the appliance delivery company will hook up your dishwasher for you; but, they occasionally run in to difficulties with the hook-up because of differences between the way the old dishwasher connected to the drain line and the way the new dishwasher connects. If you run in to this problem, call us and one of our licensed plumbers will reconfigure your drain lines to the new dishwasher’s requirements.
