| | | | Why is there a bad smell in my dishwasher? | | | | There is nothing within the construction of a dishwasher that can cause bad odours.
If your dishwasher smells it can only be the result of food debris left within the appliance because of a poor or faulty house drainage system, incorrect installation of the dishwasher drain hose or some sort of blockage in the drain pump (see Dishwasher Will Not Drain). Less likely is a problem with the water supply.
It is a good idea to run a dishwasher cleaner through the appliance every three months or so. You can find these in most supermarkets, usually in the same area that other dishwasher products are displayed. Make sure that you also clean and wipe the edges of the door and the door seal, especially at the bottom of the door. | | |
