To extend the life of your dishwasher and prevent breakdowns, in addition to dishwashing detergent, you need to use additional products.

Rinse aid

Using rinse aid allows you to clean your dishwasher from detergent residues and dirt that can accumulate in hard-to-reach places.

In addition, thanks to the rinse aid, the remains of the detergent are easily removed from the dishes themselves, thereby preventing the appearance of streaks.

Regenerating salt

Regenerating salt softens tap water, which usually contains a lot of calcium salts.

The product helps combat serious stains, preventing limescale stains on dishes and scale build-up inside the dishwasher, which can shorten its service life.

As much as we would like to, we cannot use regular salt for these purposes – it can damage the dishwasher from the inside.

Important: you can do without rinse aid only if the dishwasher tablets or gel you choose already contain all the necessary components. This information is usually located on the packaging.
