I have never tried it on a dishwasher but in the truck that i installed it in there was a slight smell the first day after i installed it and then the next day the smell was no longer there. it has been a few months since i installed it and the smell never returned and with temps in South Louisiana hitting a heat index of 110 the smeel still has not returned.i hope this helps and let me know how it goes because i never thought about doing the dishwasher butnow you have me thinking.

I believe the aluminum side is the heat resistant side and should face the heat source(the dish washer). I do not recommend you attach the "tar" side to the dish washer as it may cause a fire. So, I suggest you attach the "tar" side to the surrounding cabinets and have the aluminum side facing the dishwasher. I do not know the heat rating/temperature but you can install it to a car's frame near car's muffler with the aluminum backing facing the muffler. In terms of the "smell", I noticed it in the car for the first few hot days but after that I have not noticed it.

I found the fat mat to be odor free and exposure to areas that get fairly hot (near exhaust pipes) has not caused any problems. Fat Mat should work well for quieting your dishwasher, I think that I will do the same to mine!

I have had no issues in my vehicle with any odor. I have the on the inner firewall and inside the hood which gets quite warm. Just use a roller to make sure it sticks. Sounds like a good idea you have.

This product is made to handle sound and heat inside a vehicle .... I don't know how hot a dishwasher actually gets outside its casing but something tells me it will work just how u want it , if the surrounding wood can handle the heat than this should be just fine

My firewall gets real warm while driving. I have no odor so I don't think that you will not have any issues with odor or heat.

We are also using it in the kitchen. No odors what so ever, it is working great!

We found that washing down the whole interion and exterior, including the bottom, with a solution of ajax dish liquid and baking soda mixed in water ( 1/4 c. Liquid, 1 box soda, 1/2 gallon water) was the only way to purge ours, Odor wrecler worked great on the rest of our house but the frig still smelled horribly. Hope this helps!

I run mine through the dishwasher once a month but just hand wash in between. I use mine daily and have never had any problem with staining or odors.

I wouldn't put it in a kitchen simply because it's too loud. Noise level will get on your nerves after a while, especially if you're trying to speak to your guests. I personally think it's best for bathrooms.

While I am unable to state how much ozone is produced, I can tell you how I use the unit. I put the unit into any room in my house that has an odor, run it for a couple of hours, and then let the room air out, and odor is gone. I also use it under sinks, or anywhere that I might have mold, and again it has worked very well.

It's not bad. It does have an odor that reminds me of industrial grease or lightly like paint remover but not nearly as strong. I would suggest you be in a ventilated area.

I just notice your question is about the dishwasher. Go to their website. http://www.glistencleaners.com/Dishwasher-Cleaner-and-Disinfectant

This was the exact reason I bought this fan. I also removed the little plastic square cover to increase sensitivity and adjusted the setting for length of time I wanted it to run. I have it wired to a switch, but leave it in the on position for the motion detector. It creates a negative airflow from the house into the bathroom so the odors do not escape. Panasonic builds one of the quietest fans. I liked it so much that I bought another Panasonic with a built-in heater unit for my master bath. Good Luck!

I purchased one for a friend of mine. She also complained of the plastic odor. I advised her to wait a few more days and if it persisted, we would return it. She waited another 2 to 3 days and the odor was gone and she likes it. This is typical on many electric appliances of plastic. Hope it works for you.

Hi Almost all plastics will off-gas creating a smell when new however I do not recall any strong odor coming from this product. If you are super sensitive and find the smell objectionable, wipe it down with a 50/50 solution of vinegar/water and wipe dry. Keeping it away from heat and out of direct sunlight will also help to minimize any smell. In my opinion, smell will not be a problem with this product.

Not really-I just used it and after reading your question I had to go back in the kitchen to see if I smelled anything. The answer was no, but I had been cooking. If there is an odor it is so minimal that it just isn't an issue.

I have owned three of these for about 3 years now. I hand wash mine daily but once in a while i put it in the dishwasher but I remove the rubber gasket before I put it in the dishwasher. Repetitive dishwasher washing will eventually start to remove any paint/graphics on the outside. Thorough hand washing is best. The nice thing with the lid is that you can press and pop out the small piece that slides back and forth to cover the sip opening and remove the gasket and thoroughly clean the pieces. If you soak the rubber gasket in a baking soda and water solution you can remove any coffee odor that might remain after washing. hope this helps. I have owned three of these for about 3 years now.

The odor from these machines is similar to that of outside air just after a lightening storm. It's is a fresh type of odor but keep in mind this unit is not tone used in occupied spaces - it is much too strong for that. The space should be aired out after use before the space is occupied. Also it is important to remember that the source of the odor you're trying to remove must be eliminated for this to work - it will remove it but will not keep it from returning.

If you use your hands to cut anions, garlic or anything else that will leave a odor on your hands, you just need to rub your hands on any stainless steal (knife, faucet, etc) and the odor will go away. That's a real thing for which I don't know the physical-chemical phenomena. I just know it works by experience. The good thing about this product is that has the appropriate shape to allow you to do the same thing without running any risk of cutting or hurting your hands....It does really work and it is not April First joke.

Mine fills the kitchen with a noxious chemical stink. I washed it throughly, ran distilled vinegar through it for a cycle, and have used it for a week and it still reeks of chemicals. Not good!

After I wash the cookware I wipe it down with a paper towel that has a drop of oil. I am not aware of any rancid odor or any problems, we have always treated our cast iron this way. I imagine that when it is next used the high temperatures would kill off any bacteria that might be there. If you find out differently please let us know.
