How do you increase water temperature for a dishwasher?

Usually the dishwasher is located near a sink. If you run the hot water at the sink, that will flush the cold water from the hot water line, so the dishwasher will end up getting more hot water during its fill, and allowing the water to reach higher temperatures. Use the "Heated Wash" option to ensure maximum temperature increase. Dishwasher detergent works best around 145 degrees, so the hotter the water going in, the better it will clean.

The dishes may be cold coming out of the dishwasher because the drying cycle did not run or was not set to a high enough temperature. Check the settings and make sure the heat dry option is selected.
