Yes, you can run a dishwasher without a hot water connection. All Rhima’s machines have a “Thermo stop,” which means the cycle will not complete if the temperature has not reached the safe minimum for sanitation. Cycle times may be longer. For machines connected to cold water, if possible, connect to the 3-phase power supply.

Lipstick Stains: Myth or Truth in Glass Washing?
When it comes to glass washing in a bar, one challenge is always lipstick stains – they’re nearly impossible to remove in a standard dishwasher. Any claims to the contrary are simply misinformed, as modern lipsticks are made to last longer, making them even harder to wash off. To ensure spotless glasses, lipstick should always be removed before washing.
Why does your bar need a commercial glasswasher?
For a hassle-free, high-quality finish, we offer our High Sparkle 50 glass washing solution, paired with an RO unit (Reverse Osmosis). The RO system filters out impurities in the water, ensuring a streak-free, spot-free shine every time. This solution is ideal for high-turnover bars, where quick glass turnaround is essential during peak hours. With our efficient system, you’ll save valuable time and keep your glasses looking pristine, ready for the next round.

Does my machine comply with HACCP Guidelines?
Rhima has developed a unique monitoring program that takes safety, hygiene, and operational conditions into account. Once correctly set up, your machine will comply with HACCP guidelines. At least once per year, we recommend doing a safety hygiene test on the dishwasher. Rhima technicians are specially trained in carrying out preventative maintenance and HACCP testing on Rhima equipment. It includes temperature checks with a calibrated thermometer, residual protein swabs (before and after), and complete preventative maintenance on the machine.

Can I wash other items in glasswashers (i.e., cups and saucers?)
Yes, you can wash other items such as plates, cups, and saucers in glasswashers. Rhima glasswashers use the same washing technology as our larger dishwashers, where you can wash cups, saucers, and lightly soiled plates. It is not recommended to wash dinner plates unless it is the last cycle before emptying the dirty water and cleaning the machine. If your glasswasher has been set up with our High Sparkle system, then we recommend use for glasses only.
