Built-in dishwasher dimensions

Dimensions of built-in dishwashers The dimensions of the dishwasher and any other appliances are very important when organizing space in the kitchen. It is important to correctly distribute every square centimeter of the room so that everything fits in and looks beautiful. If the kitchen is very small, then the task becomes extremely important. Let's talk about what dishwashers come in different sizes and what you can expect.

Regulated sizes of dishwashers

Until January 1, 1994, there was a standard called GOST 27454, according to which not only the dimensions of dishwashers, but also all their technical characteristics were strictly regulated. For example, for built-in models, the dimensions of width, depth, height should not exceed the following values 50 cm, 60 cm and 81.5 cm, respectively. Moreover, the deviation from the established parameters should not exceed 5 mm.

Such strict standards ensured perfect compliance of the produced utensils with their capacity. In addition, the standard also stipulated other standards, here are some of them:

power cord no shorter than 2 m;
the distance between the wall and the back wall of the dishwasher is at least 5 cm, which will ensure normal ventilation;

Important! It is necessary to take this gap into account in advance, even at the furniture manufacturing stage.

A dishwasher built under the sink must have a recess for drainage pipes with a depth of at least 15 cm.

Despite the fact that GOST 27454 has ceased to exist, modern models of built-in dishwashers, although distinguished by a variety of dimensions, have not gone far from those standards.Here are their main dimensions:

height from 46 to 82 cm;
width from 45 to 75 cm;
depth from 48 to 62 cm.

Variety of built-in models

All modern built-in dishwashers can be divided into 4 groups:

mini dishwasher, dimensions WxHxD are 45x46x48 cm, capacity is 5 sets of dishes, which makes it possible to integrate such a machine into a small kitchen set of 6 sq.m.;

For your information! Among such machines, there are dishwashers built under the sink, which are very convenient and functional.
compact - dishwashers, the dimensions of which are 55x45x50 cm, their capacity is 6 sets;
medium - the most common version of a built-in dishwasher, its dimensions are: width from 45 to 60 cm, height 85 cm, depth - 62 cm, the capacity of such a dishwasher is 9 sets of dishes, respectively, and energy consumption is greater. Machines with medium dimensions also include narrow models, the width of which is 45 cm;
large - spacious dishwashers, designed for 12 sets of dishes or more, dimensions are 75x85x62 cm.

If we talk about specific models and manufacturers, we can give the following examples of dishwashers depending on their dimensions. Mini models we found and available for sale:

How not to make the wrong size?

dimensions of built-in dishwashers So how can you avoid making mistakes when choosing a dishwasher? In order for the equipment to fit perfectly, you have to calculate everything down to the millimeter at the stage of planning and creating a drawing of the kitchen unit. Consider what furniture will be built into the set, and how it should be located in relation to communications.

When calculating the depth of the countertop, under which floor-standing dishwashers are most often built, do not forget to take into account the width of the front part, this is if the machine is completely hidden. Besides, you need to leave a small gap between the walls of the cabinet headset 0.5-0.8 cm. Therefore, before ordering furniture, decide what size equipment you will be installing.

Important! The instructions for the washing machine detail the dimensions of not only the machine itself, but also the dimensions of the intended niche in which it should be built.

So, the dimensions of the built-in dishwasher are an important parameter when placing it in the interior. But in pursuit of the perfect design, do not forget about its capacity. Perhaps a machine with a width of 55 cm and a depth of 40 cm would be ideal for you, but imagine what its internal volume must be, given the thickness of the walls and insulation. After all, if the dishwasher is too small, then you will be able to wash very little in it., and if you have a family of 4 people... Look for a compromise and then the purchase will be justified.
