At least the lower sprinkler device (6) and the intermediate sprinkler device (7) comprise respective rotary sprinklers, and at least the intermediate sprinkler device (7) and the upper sprinkler device (8) are supplied via a canalization (12) having an initial portion (12a), an intermediate portion (12b) and a final portion (12c), which extend substantially at a lower wall, a rear wall and an upper wall of the tub, respectively. The sprinkler system (5) comprises at least one further stationary sprinkler device (13) within the tub, configured for spraying water towards one of the lower rack (9) and the upper rack (10). The canalization (12) comprises a first duct and a second duct, for supplying the intermediate sprinkler device (7) and the upper sprinkler device (8), respectively, independently of one another. The at least one further stationary sprinkler device (13) is connected in fluid communication with one of the first duct and the second duct, so as to be supplied together with the intermediate sprinkler device (7) or the upper sprinkler device (8), respectively.
