Product Information

Laundry is another issue for people with skin sensitivities. Here is a very interesting article from a lady who went to great lengths to relieve her son's suffering from eczema. It details the decline of soap and the rise of detergents. She states that detergents can affect skin permeability. Babies' skin is very delicate so you may want to follow similar advice if the skin is dry, red or irritated. As an in-wash additive to shift organic stains. Simply add a tablespoon of Soda Crystals to your normal detergent.

Cleaning- Low temperature washes and liquid detergents in particular aren't always effective at removing build up. This encourages the growth of bacteria, with the resultant odour. Always fill the salt reservoir (usually in the base) with dedicated granular salt. Never use food salt. ‘Salt action’ tablets do not replace the need for dishwasher salt.Our advice is to keep them away from high temperatures: On warm days, don't leave them in your shopping bags for extended periods in the boot of your car. We don't like to recommend toxic products like caustic soda (not to be confused with Soda Crystals) because of the health & safety implications. If you do resort to such measures, please ensure you use gloves and safety goggles and limit the amount of skin exposed that could be affected by splashes. Slow Draining Sinks As with many cleaning tasks, regular 'preventative' steps can help prevent costly remedial action down the line. Citric acid is best for descaling, although you can also use white vinegar. The acid dissolves limescale, which is alkali. The process is enhanced if the water is hot. Therefore the easiest kitchen appliance to descale is a kettle. Simply make sure there's enough cold water to cover the element (or base) and add some citric acid. A couple of tablespoons should do it. Switch on the kettle and as the water heats, you'll see the limescale fizzing (dissolving). Ordinarily, the kettle won't even get to the boil and the limescale will be gone. If it hasn't and the fizzing reaction has stopped, repeat the process. Remember to rinse out the kettle after use.

If you've filled the reservoir to the top you may be able to scoop a fair amount of the crystals (why not put them down the sink to help keep it fresh?). Spots of rust on silver cutlery is not caused by the salt. Dishwasher salt does not actually enter the wash chamber. It may be deposits from other metals. For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. It may not be too late to rescue stiff towels. This video shows you how to remove the sandpaper feel with Soda Crystals and White Vinegar.

You can also use diluted citric acid or white vinegar in place of conditioner. This also helps keep the machine clean and free of limescale. Monthly
