- Glasswasher is not providing any detectable chlorine as verified using test strips - the bottle was last changed on March 6th as noted on the bottle. Owner advised to have the unit assessed as soon as possible to restore proper sanitizing capabilities - in the meantime, dishes can be sanitized manually in an available tub with 100 ppm chlorine (1/2 teaspoon bleach per litre of water) after being run through the glasswasher. Glass cleaner and detergent bottles also need replacement as they are currently empty.
