Jackson dishwasher leaves dishes wet and not properly dried at the end of the cycle (on models with drying or final rinse sheeting).

Safety first: Surfaces and water may be hot; use care when inspecting immediately after a cycle.

• Check rinse aid level and dosing: Ensure the rinse aid container is not empty and that the pump is primed. Increase dosing slightly if spotting and wetness persist, following Jackson and chemical supplier guidelines.
• Verify final rinse temperature: Measure the final rinse temperature at the manifold. It should meet Jackson’s spec (often 180°F for high-temp sanitizing). If low, troubleshoot booster heater issues.
• Improve ventilation: Ensure the area above the dishwasher has adequate ventilation or hood exhaust to remove steam.
• Review rack loading: Train staff to load racks so that items are angled for drainage and not nested, which traps water.

After adjustments, run several racks and evaluate drying performance before making further changes.
