CMA Dishmachines Commercial Dishwasher Repair in Lakeside

CMA Dishmachines has been manufacturing commercial warewashing equipment since the early 1970s, formally incorporating in 1976 in Garden Grove, California — where the company still operates a 100,000-square-foot production facility. Founded on the principles of energy and water conservation, CMA built its early reputation around the "Energy Mizer" trademark and has remained a leader in efficient commercial dishwashing ever since. Today CMA is part of Ali Group, a global foodservice equipment conglomerate spanning 95 brands worldwide. The product line covers the full spectrum of commercial warewashing: undercounter, door-type, and conveyor dishwashers; glasswashers; and pot, pan, and utensil washers. CMA's high-temperature machines feature the Safe-T-Temp system, delivering a fresh-water 180°F final rinse that meets NSF sanitization requirements. The brand is also recognized for its electro-mechanical control design, which reduces exposure to water damage — a durable engineering choice that differentiates CMA in busy restaurant and institutional kitchens. All equipment carries NSF, UL, and cUL certifications, and many models earn ENERGY STAR qualification.

Our technicians have spent years working on the full range of CMA Dishmachines commercial dishwashers — from compact undercounter models like the UC50E to high-capacity door-type and conveyor units found in high-volume Jacksonville restaurants, hotels, and institutional kitchens. We carry OEM and manufacturer-compatible replacement parts for CMA pump motors, heating elements, thermostats, door gaskets, spray arms, and control components, minimizing equipment downtime. Our team is trained to work with both CMA's electro-mechanical controls and the electronic control boards found on newer models. Every technician arrives with diagnostic tools calibrated for commercial warewashing equipment, so we can accurately identify the root cause — not just the symptom — before any parts are ordered or installed.

When we receive a service call for a CMA Dishmachines unit, our technician performs a systematic diagnostic: checking wash and rinse temperatures, water pressure, pump function, spray arm flow, chemical dispenser output, and control board operation. Once the fault is confirmed, we source OEM or manufacturer-grade compatible components specific to your CMA model — whether that is a replacement heating element, wash pump motor, solenoid valve, or door gasket. Repairs are carried out on-site wherever possible to minimize the time your machine is out of service. After the repair is complete, we run a full operational test — verifying sanitizing rinse temperature reaches 180°F on high-temp units, confirming proper fill and drain cycles, and checking chemical dispenser calibration. All work is backed by a service warranty on both labor and parts.
