What to do with excess foam in the dishwasher

It happens that after the cycle of washing, foam forms at the bottom of the chamber. If you notice something similar in your PMM, then disconnect the machine from the mains, shut off the water supply.

It can be of the following types:

  • powder;

Clogged filter

The filter grid can become clogged with pieces of food, debris, scum. As a result, the water does not completely drain into the sink, a small amount of foam remains in the pan. Therefore, manufacturers recommend cleaning the filter twice a month. This should be able to every user:

  • open the hopper door;
  • pull out the bottom basket;
  • unscrew the filter from the pallet, and also remove the metal mesh behind it;

  • flush the parts under pressure from the tap.

So you can remove excess foam from the dishwasher "Bosch".

Incorrectly configured cycle

Check the program settings on the control panel. Many dishwasher models recognize the type of detergent. If the dissolution time of the tablet is longer than the washing cycle, then it simply does not have time to completely dissolve.

Non-observance of operating rules

Why does the machine leave a lot of foam? Strangely enough, the cause may be the remains of protein foods (yogurt, cottage cheese, egg protein). It includes protein, which promotes foaming.

Thoroughly clean the cutlery before loading it into the dishwasher.

How to remove excess foam

If it already penetrates through the doors, turn off the machine and wait until everything is seated. Then open the door and scoop up as much foam as possible. Clean the inside of the tank with clean water, wipe with a dry sponge.

Studying the feedback of users who encountered such a problem, we found effective, in their opinion, ways to eliminate foam:

  • pour half a glass of vinegar into the bottom of the machine;

  • pour a layer of salt on top;

  • start the dishwasher for a short cycle;
  • If the product still remains, repeat the procedure again.

The most difficult problem in this case is the failure of the TEN. If washing occurs at a temperature of less than 40 degrees, this results in a lot of foaming. Therefore, check the heater. Most dishwashers are located in the lower part of the casing and are part of the circulation pump.

We recommend that you read the instructions carefully and observe the dosage of detergents as indicated on the package. Watch a video on the proper operation of the dishwasher:
