THE WORKING VIEW

Why this commercial glasswasher earns its place

The SXD45A IS D is the complete spec. It brings together three critical upgrades in one machine: integral water softening (for hard-water protection), a break tank (for drainage buffer), and a drain pump (for plumbing flexibility). If you're in a hard-water region and your installation space is tight or your waste line runs uphill, this is the machine that solves it all.

The integral softener works from day one, protecting the boiler and spray arms from scale while ensuring every rinse-aid drop performs at full strength. Your glasses stay spotless service after service, and the boiler stays efficient—no descaling chore, no temperature drift. The break tank and drain pump handle the infrastructure: water drains where you need it (not where gravity dictates), and the break tank buffers any momentary drain hiccups so your wash cycle stays uninterrupted.

The peristaltic auto-dosing still meters chemicals precisely. The insulated boiler still holds temperature. The three-basket rhythm, low-water operation, 2–3 minute cycles—all the core washing power remains. But now you're buying a machine that's protected against both the invisible enemy (hard water scaling the internals) and the visible constraint (plumbing that won't cooperate with a simple setup).

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions, answered straight

Not necessarily, but they solve different problems. The softener protects your boiler and improves wash quality (hard-water problem). The pump lets you install where you want (plumbing problem). Many venues need only one. But if you're in a hard-water area with tight space and inflexible drainage, the full spec pays for itself in avoided repairs and installation hassle.

Softener salt typically costs £15–25 per cartridge, and you'll refill every 2–4 weeks depending on how many cycles you run and your water hardness. Factor that into your running costs, but remember you're avoiding boiler scale repairs (which cost far more) and getting better wash results.

Yes. The pump is sized to push water over reasonable distances—typically up to 3–4 metres horizontally or 1–2 metres uphill. If your run is longer, let us know when you call 01792 732702 and we'll confirm it works for your setup.

You could choose the SXD45 IS (integral softener, gravity drain) instead. That saves you the cost and complexity of the pump if your drainage layout is straightforward. The SXD45A IS D is the choice when you need both features.

No—the break tank is the same whether you have a pump or gravity drain. It's a reservoir that buffers water between cycles. On the D variant, it works alongside the pump to give you maximum drainage confidence.
