Built-in dishwasher

In our country, the popularity of dishwashers is only gaining momentum. Equipping the kitchen appliances, the question arises about what kind of dishwasher to buy. Many stop on embedded models. They do not stand out against the general background of the kitchen, more silent than freestanding appliances.

Built-in dishwasher is not much different from the usual, therefore, choosing it, you must also pay attention to the quality of washing, drying, the number of mortgaged programs, energy class, additional functions of the machine.

Initially, it is necessary to determine how many dishes you plan to wash per day.

For a family of 3-4 people, a small dishwasher with a capacity of 8 sets of dishes is sufficient. For homes where more people live, a standard car for 10-14 sets is perfect. There are very small dishwashers, the number of sets that they are capable of washing is 4-5.It should be borne in mind that one set is 3 plates, a glass, a cup, a saucer, 3 spoons, a fork, a knife. Other kitchen utensils are not included here.

Choosing a large dishwasher is better so that it has half load capacity. In such machines, it is possible to load only one tray, thereby not waiting for the dishwasher to be full and not to waste extra water.

Next you need to choose which model you want - fully adjustable, where the control panel is located on the side of the lid, or with the buttons open. Both options look decent. The control panel, in the second case, does not stand out much from the kitchen and is almost imperceptible.

Management is also of two kinds. Mechanical and electronic. Here someone that is more like.

There are several types of connections to the water supply system.

1. Connection to cold water. The device heats the water to the desired temperature. There is an increased power consumption, but cold water is much cleaner than hot water.
2. Connection to hot water. Do not have to spend electricity for heating. But it is necessary to take into account the fact that you will not be able to use the device in moments of seasonal disconnection of hot water supply.Also, the water temperature should be about 60-65 degrees.
3. Mixed connection. Such dishwashers have a mixer, which is simultaneously connected to both hot and cold water. This is beneficial, based on energy consumption, and no blackouts are terrible, however, such machines are more expensive.

Dishwashers have a different washing class. It is marked in Latin from A to E, and is directly dependent on the number of water dispensers inside the machine. Now, most dishwashers are A-class, which means that the output should produce perfectly clean dishes.

When choosing a dishwasher you need to pay attention to the level of noise emitted. Ideally, if it does not exceed the volume of 43 dB. Then the work of this device, you almost will not hear.

Also, when choosing a dishwasher, you must consider the presence of the following functions.

1. Protection against leakage, it will protect your kitchen from flooding, not only if any hose breaks, but also in the event of a body depressurization.With this option, manufacturers tend to equip even low-cost dishwashers.
2. Child lock. During operation, the child will not be able to knock down the program, since the buttons will be locked (this applies to models with open buttons), and the door is also blocked, which is also important. This will prevent the opening of the dishwasher with boiling water.
3. Water purity sensor. He will stop rinsing at the moment when he realizes that the water is absolutely clean, thereby helping to save water, and the dishwashing liquid will be completely washed away.
4. Delayed start. It is very useful to those who have an electricity meter day - night. You can program washing at night, thereby saving 50% of the cost of electricity.
5. Sensor presence of salt and rinse system. This function is necessary in embedded machines, provided hard water. She will tell you that softeners are over, and you need to replenish them.
6. TimeLight. A very useful feature, especially if your dishwasher is fully integrated. The beam on the floor will show the washing process and the amount of time left to its end.

It is very important that your dishwasher tray is ergonomic.Usually this technique is equipped with two or three baskets. The convenient handle will help to roll out and roll without effort the pallet with ware. Ideal when you can change the installation height and the angle of the basket. A plus is the presence of special trays for forks and spoons and fixtures for glasses.

Also the choice of the dishwasher is influenced by the price. She is quite different. You can pick up a dishwasher cheaper, with a very decent set of features. And it is possible and more expensive, which will have a full package of options.

Choosing a dishwasher, it is worth noting the fact that no matter what size and function it is, it can be built into the ready-made kitchen, choosing the appropriate size.

There are three main types of dishwashers.

1. Full size.
2. Narrow
3. Compact.

The full-size built-in dishwasher has dimensions: width 60cm, depth 60cm, height 85cm. It accommodates up to 18 sets of dishes, is an excellent assistant in a large family.

Compact dishwasher has dimensions slightly larger than a conventional microwave. Its width and depth are 40 cm, height 50 cm. It is small, does not take up much space, is ideal for a young family of two.

Make a reservation that these are standard sizes. Some manufacturers produce dishwashers mini size, while reducing the size of the narrow to 40 cm, 35 cm, compact up to 30 cm in width. It helps to choose a dishwasher for any size to embed.

Built-in dishwashers have a set of mandatory programs that are necessary for any family. In budget options, their number is from 4 to 6. Here are the main ones.

1. Pre-soak. Will be suitable for ware with dried pollution or burned fat.
2. Fast. Suitable for rinsing dishes immediately after a meal. Water temperature - a maximum of 50 degrees.

Premium machines have up to 24 dishwashing programs. They also have an automatic program selection when the dishwasher itself determines the degree of contamination of the dishes and selects the appropriate mode. And delicate, which allows you to wash glass, crystal, fine china, while the machine is equipped with a special tray for glasses.

The class of electricity consumption of embedded dishwashers is also different. And it is indicated in Latin letters from A to G. Modern manufacturers are striving to produce models with the highest class, since the saving of natural resources is very important in the world of innovative technologies.

Electricity consumption depends on the type of connection dishwasher and the amount of water used. Machines connected to hot water will consume a minimum of electricity. Heating devices will spend approximately 1.5 kW per wash cycle.

Dishwashers have three types of drying, and recessed here is no exception.

1. Condensation technology.
2. With the help of heat transfer.
3. Method of forced drying.

Drying by heat exchange also has practically no energy consumption. The dishes are treated with steam, as a result of which no condensate and drops form on the surface, which in turn leaves no traces or leaks.

The method of forced drying using a turbo blower is the most effective method. This type of drying equip expensive models. Electricity consumption for this technology is great, but at the output you get the perfect dishes, without a hint of drips and other traces.

Installing a dishwasher is no more difficult than washing. I connected it to the water supply and sewage system, put the plug in the socket, and you can start washing dishes. Or you can invite a specialist from the service center if you do not want to do it yourself.

Installation of the dishwasher is not recommended to be carried out near heating devices, for example, radiator batteries.

Do not install it under the hob. This device deals with water, and high humidity can damage the stove.
