appnut I am aware. I was saying that in the future, if the water line or screen IS plugged up that it likely will not affect the fill time since it is already slow. Sorry for the confusion. | ||

New WP-MT-KA DW Pump Design Etc The fill rate is actually pretty fast for a new DW, these DWs do have a flow meter so it should be able to get the correct amount of water as the inlet valve ages [ the inlet screen is very unlikely to clog on any DW especially these newer low water use machines, I don't see a clogged inlet screen on a DW even once in 5 or more years ]
These DWs use a sturdy-powerful one speed motor with a spinning filter screen system, no silly variable speed motor.
These DWs do not use a regular tank mounted overflow float, instead they have an overflow float mounted in a tray under the front of the DW that will shut things down and cycle the drain pump on if it detects water overflowing into the tray. [ this may be a mixed blessing, getting rid of the float inside the DW will save service calls from stuck or leaking floats, the bad thing is the tray system may be too sensitive to slight leakage from oversudsing and shut down the machine.
These DWs are very roomy and will do a very good job with no stinky-slimly filter to ever clean. The bad news is these are the first WP built DWs that you will have to uninstall and pull out to repair or replace the drain or main pumps so a lot more DWs will be thrown out because of the difficuly of repair like Bosch, Miele, Asko, SS and LG etc.
I installed 3 of the MT MBD4949*** versions of this new design on this past Thursday, they look pretty nice, one replaced a Bosch [ customer could not believe how big it was inside compared to old Bosch ] the 2nd one replaced a high end 3YO GE that failed for the 2nd time, and the 3rd replaced a 1993 last tub MT DW.

combo52 Thanks for the info!! Glad they switched to a flowmeter! It probably is for noise purposes then. | ||

Jerrod, this phenomenon was explained to me almost 15 years ago. The two short blasts of the pump is to help condition the tank. The conditioning was found to be needed in certain situations. Believe it or not, there are those who keep their water heater as high as it will go. In certain situations, when the dishwasher had filled with this very hot water from the initial fill, that when the water circulation started sometimes the door would pop open because of the huge disparity of temperature between the inside of the dishwasher and surrounding area.
