FAQs
What does dishwasher salt actually do?
Dishwasher salt softens the water entering the machine, preventing limescale build-up on dishes, glassware and the appliance itself, particularly important in hard water areas.
How often should dishwasher salt be topped up?
This depends on water hardness and how often the dishwasher is used, but most households top up the salt compartment every few weeks, guided by the machine's indicator light.
What is the difference between rinse aid and dishwasher detergent?
Detergent cleans the dishes during the wash, while rinse aid helps water sheet off glassware and crockery during the final rinse, reducing spots, streaks and drying time.
Can I use table salt instead of dishwasher salt?
No, table salt contains impurities and a different grain structure that can damage the water softening unit inside a dishwasher, so only dedicated dishwasher salt such as Finish Dishwasher Salt should be used.
