FAQ

Q. What is causing the spots on my dishes?
A. Spots are caused by minerals in the water that remain after the water has evaporated. Use of a dishwasher rinse agent can help reduce or eliminate the spots.

 

Q. Why is the water milky or cloudy?
A. Usually, air in the water will cause it to look milky or cloudy. If the water is allowed to sit, the air will dissipate and the water will be clear. If the cloudiness does not disappear, please contact us so we may investigate the problem.

Q. What can I do if I have low water pressure and/or dirt and sand in one sink in my house?
A. If you are having a problem with one sink in your home, try removing and cleaning the aerator on the faucet. This can become clogged with time and use.
