Using Delay Start and pre-soak features in dishwashers

As a leading Australian e-commerce retailer, Appliances Online is committed to providing you with the latest information on innovative features in home appliances. Here, we delve into the world of dishwashers, specifically focusing on the time-saving benefits of delay start and pre-soak features.

The delay start feature in dishwashers is a game-changer for busy households. This innovative function allows you to load your dishwasher and set a timer for when you want the washing cycle to begin. Whether you're planning to be out for the day or want to have your dishes cleaned while you sleep, the delay start feature provides the flexibility to suit your schedule.

The pre-soak feature in dishwashers is another time-saving function that deserves attention. This feature soaks your dishes before the main wash cycle begins, loosening stubborn food particles and stains. The result? Your dishwasher doesn't have to work as hard during the main cycle, reducing the need for repeat washes and saving you time and energy.

Energy efficiency: Running your dishwasher during off-peak hours can reduce your energy costs. The delay start feature allows you to take advantage of lower energy rates, making it a cost-effective choice.
Noise reduction: Dishwashers can be noisy. By using the delay start feature, you can schedule your dishwasher to run when you're not at home or during the night, reducing noise disruption. (We also have some tips for reducing dishwasher noise).
Improved cleaning: The pre-soak feature ensures your dishes are thoroughly cleaned the first time around, eliminating the need for hand washing or re-washing.
Time-saving: With these features, you can set your dishwasher to clean when it's most convenient for you, freeing up your time for other tasks.
