Not draining, door seal, not cleaning — Same-day, fixed quote.
Gresham dishwashers use Portland's Bull Run water at 20–30 PPM — the same very soft supply as inner Portland. No calcium scale issues. Dishwasher cleaning performance in Gresham homes is excellent through the first 12–15 years without specific maintenance. When Gresham dishwashers fail, the cause is mechanical: drain pump failure, door latch wear, control board fault, or inlet valve failure from years of cycling. Gresham's older housing stock generates more repair-versus-replace dishwasher guidance calls than newer suburban communities.
Gresham's position at the east end of the Bull Run distribution system means water sometimes shows slight characteristics from the eastern supply branches. This doesn't meaningfully affect appliance performance — at 20–30 PPM, the water is still far softer than any hard water market — but it can produce occasional seasonal taste variation in ice. This is water supply variation, not an ice maker fault.
