Which detergent should I use for hard water?

Hard water can mean limescale builds up faster in your dishwasher, leading to mineral deposits being left on your dishes after a cycle. If you have hard water in your home instead of soft water, you may be looking for dishwasher detergent for hard water.

While detergents aren’t designed specifically for hard water, using a high quality detergent like the Finish® Quantum UltraMax® alongside a good Finish® rinse aid reduces the chance of the negative effects of hard water blighting your dishes.

Our rinse aids help prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, making it harder for mineral deposits to settle on them. When used regularly alongside your detergent, the special formula will ensure you have streak-free dishes after every cycle.
