Taking care of your home appliances with regular service and maintenance is crucial. Not only does routine maintenance keep your appliances running smoothly, but it ensures that they’re running safely as well.

Healthy Appliances for a Healthy Home

It’s easy to take appliances for granted because we use them every day. Just like any machine, though, parts can wear out, break down, or get clogged. Not only is this inconvenient, but it can be dangerous as well.

Appliances are often connected to electricity, gas, and water lines. If something goes wrong with the appliance, it can often compromise those connections. In some cases, this can lead to a fire hazard or a water backup. A clogged dishwasher, for example, could cause a kitchen flood and water damage. A malfunctioning oven or dryer is at risk of starting a house fire.

Keep Calm and Appliance Service On!

Don’t panic, though! A fire or flood issue is a worst-case scenario that can be avoided by taking care of your appliances with regular maintenance. The best part is that you can do a lot of that maintenance on your own by:

• Keeping appliances clear of dust and debris
• Regularly cleaning filters
• Monitoring for any drips, leaks, or unusual noises

It sounds simple, but following these actions can have a huge impact on keeping your appliances functional and safe in the long run. And, by keeping an eye on your appliances, you’ll also be able to tell when something’s not quite right. If that happens, you’ll be able to call an appliance repair specialist for professional service before there’s a major problem or safety issue.

Cleaning up after meals can be hard work, but thankfully dishwashers make clean up after meals so much easier. Of course, that all depends on whether your dishwasher drain is working properly.

How Water Gets in Your Dishwasher

When you start your dishwasher, water gets pumped into a basin through a hose connected to the machine. Your home’s water supply line connects directly to this hose on your dishwasher. It pumps cold water into your dishwasher that is warmed up with a heating element and then forces it up pipes on the side the machine, which are connected to the dishwasher spray arms.

How Water Drains from Your Dishwasher

Once the washing and rinsing cycles have finished, the water drains down to the dishwasher’s basin again, and then is pumped out. Depending on the type of dishwasher you own, the drained water might go directly into the pipes under your sink or through your garbage disposal.

Handling Dishwasher Drain Clogs

If the water wont’ drain from your dishwasher, it could be for a clog or a problem in one of the following areas:

• Filter basket
• Drain hose
• Garbage disposal

If there’s just food stuck in the filter basket, you can easily remove it and clean off the food particles. You can also soak the basket in vinegar to get rid of any grease buildup. If there’s a clog somewhere else, though, it may be time to call the pros.

If you’re having any issues with your dishwasher draining and you’ve run out of DIY solutions, you can call on the dishwasher repair pros at All Brands Appliance Repair. We’re here to help folks in Wilmington and the nearby area solve their dishwasher problems!

“Past is prologue,” as the old saying goes. 

In other words, history informs the present and, in many ways, predicts the future. That’s why we’re so proud of our company’s history—because it tells you everything you need to know about us as a business and a family.

So, without further ado, here are the highlights of All Brands Appliance Repair’s history.

Founded in 1971

The original owner of All Brands Appliance Repair founded the company in 1971. In the years that followed, he built a successful business from the ground up.

During that time, his son got his first taste of appliance repair work and soon discovered he had a knack for hands-on, technical problem solving. He shadowed his father and proved to have a natural talent for troubleshooting and diagnosing appliances. Gradually, he honed his skills and learned the ropes of owning an appliance repair business from his father—until the day finally came for him to take over. 

The founder’s son continues to own and operate All Brands Appliance Repair today. 

Upholding Our Family Tradition

Since taking over the family business, All Brands Appliance Repair continues to grow its success, proudly serving the folks of Wilmington, Tewksbury, Burlington, and surrounding areas.

Are you in the market for new kitchen appliances?

If you’re doing your own research about which brands are most popular with homeowners in the Wilmington, MA, area, then you’ve probably noticed a lot of buzz about Bosch. And for good reason!

In this blog post, we’re going to highlight some of the customer-favorite features of Bosch dishwashers, ovens, ranges, and other kitchen appliances.

Your kitchen appliances have a definitive impact on the look and feel of your whole space. Fortunately, whether you’re going for rustic charm or modern chic, you’ll find a set of attractive Bosch appliances that complement your style. 

Energy Efficiency

Although Bosch units come with a larger price tag up front, their energy-saving performance will offset that cost over time. They operate super-efficiently—and quietly—reducing your utility bills and carbon footprint. 

Durable Engineering

German engineering is famous for a reason. At Bosch, they take their sophisticated engineering to the next level, performing rigorous QA testing and boasting one of the longest appliance lifespans on the market. If you plan on selling your home in the near future, Bosch kitchen appliances will retain their value nicely and may even become an extra selling point.

Innovative Features

Bosch is known for having one of the highest patent counts in the industry. The brand is constantly innovating. For example, Bosch dishwashers have PureDry® technology, which maximizes your unit’s deep-cleaning and sanitizing power. Meanwhile, Bosch refrigerators boast the FarmFresh System®, which uses special filters and sensors to keep your food safe and fresh for longer periods of time.
