Abstract
A dishwashing machine having a wash tank (1) arranged to be supplied with fresh supply water through an appropriate water supply circuit (8-14). The machine is adapted to perform operational cycles including a washing phase and at least one rinsing phase. A water recovery system (14, 15) is provided to store in a reservoir (11) water from the last rinse for re-using during a subsequent washing cycle. The reservoir (11) is a part of the water supply circuit (8-14) so that the reservoir is capable of being flushed by the fresh water delivered into the tank (1,4) when the supply circuit is opened.
