It is key to make sure you are using the right detergent. However, there is not one detergent that works best for everyone. You can first start with either powder, liquid, tablets, or pods, depending on your preference. Other type of soaps cause too many suds and can leave behind a residue.

When you need a deep clean, try a rinse aid agent. These products help rinse out the dishwasher so that it can perform its best. If you have spots that form on your dishes, these are generally happening during the rinsing cycle when the detergent is gone. Adding a rinse agent can help the water drip off entirely during the dry cycle – which means an end to spots and stains on your dishes.

You can run a dishwasher cleaner through your washer once every two to three months. This can get rid of any mold, mildew, or bacterial growth, along with other types of residues. If you have noticed that your dishwasher smells bad, or that it often has clogs, then this could make a big impact.

As dishwashers begin to work at lower and lower capacities, it is natural for a homeowner types even more. They assume that since the dishwasher is not working well that it cannot handle the added residue on plates and bowls. The truth is that while you do want to scrape off excess food from your dishes, you do not want to rinse them. Believe it or not, dishwasher detergent actually works its best when there is something for it to interact with.
