Frequently Asked Questions
What type of operations use industrial dishwashers?
Restaurants, healthcare facilities, schools, and other commercial operations use these industrial units to provide high-speed sanitation that residential units can't match.
How do I choose the right commercial dishwasher for my needs?
Consider available space, peak rack volume, and preferred sanitizing method to determine the best machine for your operation.
Are all commercial dishwashers also automatic dishwashers?
Most commercial dishwashers are automatic dishwashers because they automate the wash, rinse, and sanitizing process once dishes are loaded. Common automatic commercial dishwasher types include undercounter, door-type, conveyor, glass washer, and pot and pan washer models. However, staff may still need to scrape dishes, load racks, unload clean items, and maintain detergent or sanitizer levels.
Do automatic commercial dishwashers sanitize dishes?
Yes, automatic commercial dishwashers are designed to clean and sanitize dishes, glassware, flatware, and cookware. Depending on the model, they may use high-temperature water or chemical sanitizers to meet foodservice sanitation needs.

Commercial-grade dishwashers provide dependable performance with powerful wash pumps and fast cycles for efficient turnaround.
