It is very disappointing when you notice that the colour and/or pattern is fading from your china after regularly being washed in your dishwasher. Unfortunately, this is a permanent effect but is not caused by a fault with your dishwasher.
Common reasons include:
When unloading your dishwasher it is is very disappointing to note everything is looking very dull, and almost if it has a film over the surface. Unfortunately, all these dishes will need to be re-washed before they are used again.Although not impossible, it is highly unlikely this is caused by a fault with your dishwasher. You will only be able to determine what has caused the problem if you follow the steps that are outlined below. Read more about it here…
If you see foam residue in your dishwasher or, in severe cases, foam oozes out of the door seal, you should turn off the appliance as soon as possible.
The cause of over-foaming is not a fault with the appliance itself, it is generally caused by human error by using a non-dishwasher detergent. If you use gel caps for both your dishwasher and washing machine, there is a chance that you could pick up the wrong gel cap in error. Read More…
Everyone has different requirements they are looking for in a dryer, but a lot of people don’t realise that where you intend to site your dryer is very important. Each type of dryer needs to be in an area where there is a free flow of air to allow the cool air to be taken into the appliance to start the drying process. However, the temperature of the area where your dryer will be installed is also important.
Too low temperature: If the temperature drops very low during a winter period, a condenser or heat pump tumble dryer will not work. Even worse, sometimes you think its working as the motor comes on and the clothes are rotated in the drum but unfortunately the dryer is unable to heat up sufficiently to dry the clothes. This is because instead of the water condensing in the condenser of the dryer, it will start to condense of other cold surfaces within the dryer. In order for this type of dryer to work correctly the room temperature must be at least 5 Deg C. You may have a dryer with an electronic display, which will indicate the temperature is too low and the appliance will not work at all. Read More…
Very pleased to say that even though this is very annoying, it is not a problem with your particular dishwasher, and can readily be resolved in most cases.Before identifying the various reasons for your dishes not drying properly, some crockery and glasses have decorative indentations and, unfortunately, these indentations will always hold water. The smoother the particular item, the dryer it will be. Read More…
Regardless of the type of oven (or cooker) involved, the basic principles are the same.All ovens will use elements to provide the necessary heat. An element is a thin gauge of wire in a spherical shape, or a thicker piece of wire which is then covered by a coating of powder, finished off by a metal outer.
Depending on the model type, an oven is basically made up by:
Most of these elements are reliable but occasionally you may find that you have a ‘hot spot’ where the insulation is a bit thin or perhaps the inner wire could be too close to the outer sleeve. If this fault is present, you will notice it more or less straightaway and you should contact your manufacturer for a replacement.
You will be pleased to know that if you have a problem with an element and you are out of your Warranty period, as long as you know the make and model of your appliance, you should have no problem sourcing a replacement. Read More Here…
