Living in an area with extremely hard water can be hard on your dishwasher and even harder to get really clean dishes. Here are some tips to help your dishwasher


  • Best to use a Gel or a liquid dish washing detergent (don’t use a powder or packets)
  • Use Jet Dry or our home made recipe
    • Home made recipe- 1 cup peroxide and 3 drops of essential oil

    • start with empty dishwasher
    • pour 1/2 gallon of white vinegar in bottom (let sit for 15 min)
