Why your CMA Dishmachines commercial dishwasher is not draining
Here's how not draining typically presents on a CMA Dishmachines commercial dishwasher: water pools at the bottom of the tub. Usually drain pump, clog, or check-valve. Nine times out of ten it comes down to failed drain pump motor. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.
Most likely causes
- Debris jamming the impeller
- Clogged drain pump or filter
- Control board not signalling the pump
Known CMA Dishmachines commercial dishwasher weak points
- chemical sanitizer not dispensing or delivery-failure alarms
- wash and rinse arm clogging
- wash pump seal leaks
- drain and fill valve faults
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: check whether the unit is sitting level, since a strong tilt alone can stop proper draining. Also, check the drain hose isn't kinked or blocked and clear any visible debris from an accessible filter. If it's still acting up after that, if it still won't drain, the pump or an internal valve has likely failed, and opening the unit yourself can void the manufacturer's warranty.
