A hint or two about dishwashers

I am so excited - the new dishwasher was installed yesterday, and after today, I should be able to reclaim the kitchen! I'm very pleased with the new flooring, counter top and appliances; just wish (like everywhere in this old house) there was more storage!

I am one of those people who read all the information sent with new purchases, and picked up two great tips for getting the most from your dishwasher (courtesy of Cascade):

1. Avoid running your dishwasher when you also have the washing machine or shower/bath running - otherwise you might not have enough water pressure to get the dishes clean; and,

2. Run your kitchen's hot water tap for a couple of minutes before starting the dishwasher - this will ensure the first water fill is nice and hot.
