Summary

A homeowner in Surrey called us about a dishwasher that was causing a bad smell and not draining properly after running. We found the source of both problems during our visit.

The Work

Inspected dishwasher operation and confirmed the odor and drainage issues
Removed and cleaned a heavily soiled filter, clearing trapped debris
Located a clogged drain line under the filter and cleared the blockage
Checked pump pressure and demonstrated proper filter maintenance for the customer

The Outcome

The dishwasher now drains as it should and no longer gives off a foul smell. We also showed the customer how to remove and reinstall the filter, making future upkeep easier.
