Commercial Undercounter Dishwashers

Best Undercounter Dishwashers for Commercial Kitchens

An undercounter dishwasher slides beneath a standard counter or bar top and delivers commercial grade wash and sanitize performance in a footprint where a full size machine will not fit. Bars, cafes and small restaurants get a full warewashing station without surrendering floor space to a dish room, and operations that outgrow it step up to single rack and double rack dishwashers.

We feature top-quality brands such as Champion, CMA Dishmachines, Jackson, Lamber, and Moyer Diebel, and strive to provide the most competitive prices available.

Benefits of Undercounter Dishwashers

High temperature models sanitize with a 180°F final rinse, so plates and glassware come out spot free with no sanitizing chemical in the rinse. Low temperature models sanitize chemically, skip the booster heater and run on standard 115 volt service, suiting rooms without heavier electrical service or added ventilation. Bars washing only stemware and pints can pair either configuration with dedicated glass washer machines.

Throughput runs from roughly 21 to 40 racks per hour on cycles short enough to keep up through a rush, and Energy Star qualified models keep water use per rack low. Kitchens needing continuous volume beyond that move to conveyor dishwashers.

What to Look for in Undercounter Dishwashers

Sanitizing type, booster heater and drain pump are set by the utilities and plumbing already in the building rather than by preference, so confirm those three first.

• Sanitizing type: High temperature uses a 180°F final rinse, while low temperature uses chemical sanitizer and produces no steam.
• Booster heater: Some high temperature machines include a built in booster, and others expect the building supply to reach rinse temperature.
• Drain pump: A pumped drain discharges to a line above floor level, while machines without one need gravity drainage to a floor sink.
• Rack capacity: Rated racks per hour should match the busiest service period, not the daily average.
• Door opening: Fixed rack clearance caps the tallest item that fits, so measure pitchers and oversized plates first.
• ADA height: Reduced height configurations fit beneath accessible counters and lower than standard counter runs.
