This water softener uses ion exchange resin that needs to be regularly regenerated using coarse-grain dishwasher salt. Without salt, the resin becomes saturated and stops working — hard water then passes through the machine, causing limescale build-up inside the dishwasher and leaving white marks on glasses and dishes. \u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher salt is not the same as table salt\u003c\/strong\u003e — it is a coarser, purer grade of sodium chloride specifically designed for dishwasher water softener units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eParticularly Important in Hard Water Areas\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe UK has significant regional variation in water hardness. Areas including London, the South East, East Anglia, and the East Midlands have particularly hard water with high mineral content. In these areas, dishwasher salt is essential — without it, limescale will build up rapidly inside the machine and on dishes. Even in softer water areas, using dishwasher salt helps maintain cleaning performance and protects the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLocate the salt reservoir in the bottom of your dishwasher – it is usually a screw-cap compartment in the floor of the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUnscrew the cap and pour the dishwasher salt directly into the reservoir using the funnel provided with your dishwasher (if applicable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplace the cap securely and run a wash cycle immediately to flush any spilled salt from the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTop up when the salt indicator light on your dishwasher illuminates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not put dishwasher salt in the detergent compartment – it goes in the dedicated salt reservoir only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor use in dishwashers only – do not use as table salt or for cooking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not put in the detergent or rinse aid compartment – salt reservoir only\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKeep out of reach of children\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStore in a cool, dry place\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCheck your dishwasher manual for the recommended salt setting for your water hardness level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elbow Grease","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58676328857984,"sku":"5053249285924","price":1.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/8267\/4787\/files\/5053249285924.jpg?v=1787148980","url":"https:\/\/www.latifs.co.uk\/products\/elbow-grease-dishwasher-salt-1kg-prevents-white-marks-limescale-softens-water","provider":"Latifs.
