The tablet does not dissolve in the dishwasher

Dishwasher tablets are divided into different types. The following types of products are available in stores:

• Three-component.
• With dissolvable packaging.
• Multicomponent.
• Environmentally friendly.

Multicomponent tablets have a complex composition. They are expensive, but give excellent results. Three-component products contain only basic components. They are not that expensive, but are also effective.

Environmentally friendly preparations do not contain harmful elements. Any type of product has individual packaging. In some cases it may be soluble.

The main reasons for incomplete dissolution of the detergent tablet in the dishwasher

There are several reasons why tablets do not dissolve in the dishwasher. The main ones are:

• The dishes are not loaded into the appliance correctly.
• The tableted drug has expired, it has frozen or become wet.
• Water pressure is weak.
• The compartment where the tablet is placed is clogged.
• A product with insoluble containers is used together with packaging.

Before starting work, it is recommended to test one tablet by dissolving it in a glass of water. It is necessary to make sure that the pressure and filling are correct, and that the device is in good working order. If the parameters presented are normal, you should call a technician; something must have happened to the machine itself.

Dishwasher incompatible

Detergents may not be suitable for the machine if they are modern and the machine is old. In this case, the dishwasher program is not able to properly dissolve the product. It may remain in the cuvette.

Incorrect operation of the dishwasher

Attention! In some cases, the user of the device independently sets the wrong washing program. You must carefully read the instructions for using detergents. You should put funds into the device correctly. You also need to choose dishwasher tablets correctly, according to the newness and brand of equipment.

Dosing system malfunction

The structure of the detergent cuvette in dishwashers is complex. The following main components are distinguished:

• Pill compartment.
• Gelya.
• Powder.
• Rinse aid.

The tablet compartment is equipped with a special valve. It is this that can work incorrectly if the dishes are placed incorrectly, or if there is a blockage. In this case, the tablet will not get wet well.

Malfunction of individual dishwasher parts

Dishwasher tablets may not dissolve in the dishwasher if certain parts of the appliance are faulty. Problems may arise with:

• heating element (low temperature). The temperature should be at least 60 degrees.
• The temperature sensor is not working. It may not give the water heater a “command” - “heating”.In this case, the tablet cannot dissolve.
• The impeller is broken. When the dishwasher is running, the impeller begins to rotate. If the utensils are not positioned correctly in the appliance, they may break the rocker arm. It is not possible to repair the impeller yourself.
• The water heater is broken. A part may burn due to scale formation on it.
• Problems with the circulation pump. The presented part is responsible for the required pressure in the machine.

It is not recommended to replace failed equipment elements yourself! It is better to seek help from professionals.

Other reasons (violation of tablet storage conditions, insufficient water supply)

The tablets may not dissolve due to insufficient water in the machine. The flow filter may become clogged over time, resulting in the device being unable to draw water normally. In this case, it may not give an error, but continue the washing cycle. As a result, the tablet will not dissolve.

Important! Each detergent contains a large number of elements that must be stored in a dry environment. When moisture gets on the tablet, its properties begin to deteriorate. Branded products are often produced in a soluble coating. If you store it in a humid environment, the packaging will be damaged. It is not recommended to purchase such products.

How to fix the problem yourself

If technical problems occur, you should carefully check the machine parts.

• In-line filter: located behind the inlet hose. Turn off the water and disconnect the hose. Then you get the mesh. You need to see if it is dirty. If there is debris, it should be eliminated, then an additional filter is installed. The mesh itself is washed with running water.If this does not help, you can soak it in water with citric acid dissolved in it.
• Fill Valve: Located behind the filter. It's worth checking to see if it's clogged. If there is a problem, you need to fix it.
• Sprayer: in this case, the nozzles may become clogged. As a result, the water supply pressure and the quality of washing are reduced. Close the hopper door, remove the sprayer from the tray, clean the holes with a toothpick, and rinse them with water.

By properly caring for your dishwasher, you can avoid problems with breakage of its individual parts!

Rules that will ensure complete dissolution of detergent products

There are some rules for using tablets in dishwashers. One tablet is enough for one sink, and you can wash about 12 sets of dishes. You need to choose the washing mode correctly. 3 in 1 tablets can only be used in long-term modes - lasting more than 1 hour. It is important to store the tablets correctly. They must be in a dry place. If you purchased a detergent with a soluble coating, you should only handle it with dry hands.

So, dishwasher tablets are a convenient solution, but you have to use them correctly. Otherwise, they will be ineffective and may cause equipment failure.
