The dishwasher is a convenient and practical household appliance. It can help us finish the work of washing dishes quickly and efficiently, eliminating the hassle.
The principle of the dishwasher is to wash the surface of the tableware 360° by high temperature and high pressure water flow. Detergent can decompose the residue and dirt on the surface of the tableware. The soaking of food residues in hot water can quickly decompose the oil stains and residues on the tableware in a short period of time.
There are two main types of dishwashers on the market today.
The first is the automatic dishwasher, which has a heater inside. It first heats the water to about 70 degrees Celsius, and then several nozzles spray hot water mixed with detergent onto the tableware.
After the cleaning is completed, release the hot water, and then change the water to repeat the above procedure. The tableware was washed several times in this way.
The second type of dishwasher is the ultrasonic dishwasher. The principle of this dishwasher is to use an ultrasonic generator to generate ultrasonic waves. When these ultrasonic waves pass through the liquid medium, the liquid will generate high-frequency vibrations, and the dirt on the tableware will be cleaned by the vibration of the liquid.
If more and more families buy dishwashers, many brands of dishwasher-specific detergents have appeared on the market.
Therefore, some consumers have a question, can dishwashers only be used with special detergents? Are these special detergents safe? Will the use of special detergents significantly increase the cost of using a dishwasher?
Dishwasher-specific detergent is not necessary, but using a special detergent can improve the performance and life of the dishwasher, while also better protecting the dishes.
The main function of dishwasher-specific detergent is to better dissolve oil and food residue, and will not cause damage to the internal parts and pipes of the dishwasher. If you use ordinary detergent, it may cause the pipes and filters inside the dishwasher to be blocked, and even accelerate the damage of the dishwasher.
Dishwasher detergents are more expensive than regular detergents, but because they are more concentrated, you need to use less each time, and the cost of use is relatively low. In addition, the ingredients in dishwasher-specific detergents have generally undergone rigorous safety testing and will not affect human health.
Precautions for purchase
1.Capacity: When choosing a dishwasher, the capacity of the dishwasher should be determined according to the number of people in your family and the frequency of use.
Generally speaking, the larger the capacity of the dishwasher, the more tableware it can hold, but at the same time, the volume and price of the dishwasher also need to be considered.
2.Energy efficiency: The energy efficiency of dishwashers is very important for energy saving and emission reduction. When purchasing a dishwasher, you should choose a product with a higher energy efficiency label, and try to choose a dishwasher that can save water and electricity, which is good for environmental protection and saving household expenses.
3.The noise of the dishwasher: The noise of the dishwasher is also very important for home use. Generally speaking, the quieter the dishwasher, the more comfortable it is to use. Therefore, when purchasing a dishwasher, try to choose products with less noise.
4.Function: Some advanced dishwashers also have functions such as drying and disinfection. These functions can make the dishwasher more practical, but the price is relatively higher. When purchasing, we can choose according to our own needs.
