Water Supply Requirements

Question:

What are the water supply requirements for my dishwasher and how to troubleshoot if it's not filling with water?

 

Answer:

For your dishwasher to work properly, it needs certain things:

 

Hot water coming in at 120 - 149 degrees Fahrenheit.

A special kind of pipe called a stainless steel supply line.

Water pressure between 20 and 120 pounds per square inch (psi).

A 90-degree bend in the water line called an elbow.

The elbow has different ends: 1/2 inch NPT on one side and 3/8 inch compression fitting on the other side.

 

If your dishwasher isn't getting filled with water (Error 4C/60), try these steps:

 

Check the water supply valve - It shouldn't be turned off.

Look at the hose - Make sure there aren't any bends or twists in it.

Check the filter and water valve - They shouldn't be blocked.

 

Remember, always check the water connections for leaks before using your dishwasher for the first time!
