Aqua Sensors
Aqua Sensors
The aqua sensor only affects energy usage, eliminating a
pre-wash and/or pre-rinse cycle if water is clean. Most
customers won’t notice the difference if an aqua sensor fails.
NOTE:
Aqua sensors
provide ~ 20% energy
savings.
HINT:
Dishwashers still
operate adequately when
aqua sensors fail.
HINT:
Customers will only notice aqua sensors failing if they
see their dishwashers running slightly longer or their electric
and water usage getting slightly higher.
NOTE:
If water is clean
enough, it will be kept for
the wash cycle. If not, the
aqua sensor directs the
dishwasher to add an
additional pre-rinse or pre-
wash cycle.
