Hey guys. I've noticed that more and more dishwasher main wash pumps are getting quieter and quieter. Why is that? Did they eliminate cooling fans? Why or why not? I've noticed that even the new Maytag dishwashers eliminated the cooling fan noise since you can't hear it. I believe GE may have a very small one. What are your thoughts? | ||

motor fan no separate fan-just fins cast into the aluminum rotor end rings of the motor to circulate cooling air.My Bosch dishwasher has wet rotor BLDC motor with no external moving parts.A craptastic 2019 Frigidaire dishwasher I junked had a little brushed dc motor with a small radial fan on the end. | ||

I have a 2018 TOL Whirlpool-made KitchenAid dishwasher. Its drying performance totally sucks. It has an asthmatic blower fan, but if one opens the machine at exactly the time when the cycle is complete, steam pours out of it and even glasses and plates still have water droplets on them. And yes, I do use a rinse aid. Other owners have complained of the same thing.

to cfz2882 Which dishwashers have pumps that still use them? So far, I'm starting to hear less cooling fan noise on the dishwashers of today. I am referring to the ones with the fins cast into the motor rotor. | ||

to maytaga806 Believe me, I've been intrigued by it as well. My GE/Kenmore dishwasher had a cooling fan you could hear while running. To me, it made the dishwasher sound cool. It's interesting. | ||

pump layout Does anybody make dishwasher pumps that are vertical or horizontal? What about Bosch? It seems to me that most are horizontal. Do they still make vertical pumps anymore? | ||

don't think any have integral pump/drain motors anymore. Some were side mount. The motors are all smaller, and seperate, thus quieter, not always more durable. They don't mount to the tub, but have rubber plenums, so it doesn't matter which direction they face. | ||

bldc pumps My Kenmore built by Bosch has a bldc pump. I notice it would alternate spray pressure from low to high and back depending on what cycle it was on. I think the normal cycle does high pressure because I've heard it do that before. | ||
