Wondering how to clean your washing machine or dishwasher the best? After all, your appliances won’t be able to clean your laundry and dishes properly if they aren’t kept clean themselves. Fortunately, we have just the thing to get them spotless and help keep them in great shape for longer…

Introducing our very own eSpares dishwasher and washing machine cleaner and descaler! This handy accessory is great for cleaning your dishwasher and washing machine deeply and effectively, improving both the hygiene and the longevity of your appliances. Let’s take a look!

How the washing machine and dishwasher cleaner and descaler works

Over time, the internal parts of your washing machine and dishwasher will start to suffer from grime and limescale build-up, making them a breeding ground for bacteria. In fact, according to British Water, even a mere 1.6mm coating of limescale on a heating element can make an appliance up to 12% less effective! That’s where the descaler comes to the rescue.

By cleansing your appliances and all their internal parts, the eSpares descaler not only leaves your washing machine and dishwasher spotless but also provides a range of other benefits too. These include:

• Removal of limescale, detergent build-up and common bacteria
• Boosting the performance of your washing machine and dishwasher
• Saving energy due to improved performance
• Keeping your appliances in working order for longer
• Banishing bad odours and providing a fresh scent
• Preventing harmful bacteria from forming

Cleaning your dishwasher

The best part about this handy cleaner and descaler is that it provides these amazing results whilst being super easy to use! To use it as a dishwasher cleaner…

• First, ensure the appliance is empty.
• Then simply pour half of the sachet into the dishwasher detergent drawer.
• Pour the remainder into the bottom of your dirty dishwasher.
• Don’t use any additional detergents.
• Run a hot water wash cycle at a temperature higher than 55°C without a prewash function.

During the wash cycle, the dishwasher cleaner and descaler will remove unpleasant smells and bacteria, shift stubborn limescale and leave your appliance in tip-top condition!

As with your dishwasher, the cleaner and descaler really is that easy to use for lasting effects! You can also use it for more precise cleaning in specific areas by doing the following…

• Dissolve a sachet in a spray bottle with warm water.
• Spray the solution on any dirty areas that need cleaning.
