Bosch Custom Dishwasher Planning Guide | 1
Everyone knows Germans craft
brilliant and efcient machines.
The question is, Why? At Bosch, it’s
because we relish a challenge. We prize
the ability to overcome technological
obstacles in order to produce precise,
powerful machines that perform better,
are more intuitive to use and use fewer
resources—while delivering world-class
performance. Moreover, we aren’t afraid
of the exacting work it takes to produce
elegant, stylish products with the most
advanced technology available. Combine
that with rigorous technical education,
strict German efciency guidelines and
over two hundred days of rain each year—
driving us inside for long periods— well,
maybe it’s not that difcult to understand
what drives Germans to engineer the
world’s best machines.
The most quiet and efcient
dishwashers in the U.S.
Bosch’s incredible line of dishwashers are fully customizable
with a variety of sizes and styles available.
Brand Leader for Quietness*
A whisper is about 30 decibels and
a normal conversation is about 60
decibels. As the quietest dishwasher
in the U.S.,* the Bosch 800 Plus has
a silence rating as low as 40 dBA,
equivalent to a library. Bosch also has
the quietest line of dishwashers available.
Efciency
Bosch has a complete line of
dishwashers with CEE Tier 2
efciency. We’re also the most energy
and water efcient line in the U.S.
Our advanced EcoSense™ Wash
Management System measures soil
levels, then adjusts water and heat
usage automatically to reduce energy
usage by up to 20%.
manufacturer to offer a high-tech leak
protection system in our dishwashers.
AquaStop® is a precisely engineered tub
and sensor system that detects leaks in
the solid molded base of the dishwasher,
shuts down operation and automatically
pumps out water so it cannot make
contact with the oor. This eliminates
the risk of costly water damage. The
AquaStop® Plus, available on the 800 Plus
Series, includes an electro valve at the
water tap and a unique, double-walled
hose system for the most comprehensive
safety system available.
Safety
Bosch is the only U.S.
All Bosch dishwashers are ENERGY STAR
qualied. Bosch ENERGY STAR qualied
models include many technical
innovations that reduce energy and
water consumption while improving
performance, including EcoSense,™
EcoAction® and condensation drying.
