The heating eements in dishwashers function in two ways.They come on during the main wash to maintain a temperature of at least 150F.Some modls have a sanitemp option that will increase the wash and in some models the final rinse temperatures to between 160F and 180F.Most people who have them take advantage of the energy saver option and let the load of dishes air dry which can save operating costs up to 50% on most models but does not turn it on or off for the main wash.All dishwashers are connected to the hot water line,not cold.

Sani-Wash - models WU/WC700, 700E, 701, 702. Can be used to improve cleaning on any wash cycle. Maximum cleaning will result when used on Heavy or Pots & Pans cycles. Provides heat from the element during all wash and rinse phases in order to maintain water temperature. On the WU/WC 702, Sani maybe used with Temp Boost option or by itself. Sani-Scrub - WU900, 900E and 901 Can be used to improve cleaning on any cycle. Best used on Heavy or P&P cycles. Provides and extended main wash time (26 minutes with heat) and element is energized during all wash and rinse phases to maintain water temps. Temp Boost - WU 502 and WU/WC 702. Can be used to improve cleaning on any cycle, best used with Heavy or P&P cycles. Provides heat in the main wash cycle and is thermostatically controlled to achieve 140F. Main wash will be 13 minutes minimum but if 140F is not reached, wash-time is extended to reach full temp. The indicator light is normally illuminated while machine is running but will go out during extended wash/heating time to indicate water is being heated. On 702 models, Temp Boost can be used by itself or with Sani-Wash options. Power Boost - WU902. Used to improve cleaning in any cycle but best with Heavy or P&P cycles. Provides heat in all wash and rinse phases and extends the main wash to 26 minutes. Thermostatically controlled to 140F, main wash will be 26 minutes minimum and extended if needed to reach 140F. Power Scrub - WU1000 Can be used to improve cleaning in any cycle but best with Pots & Pans cycle. Provides heat in all wash and rinse phases to maintain water temps and extends main wash to 26 minutes. (The 202 models only use the heating element for drying - not in any other part of the cycle.) |
