We have really hard water, and I'm not sure if Finish dishwasher detergent is strong enough. How can I prevent the buildup?

Consider these methods to remove hard water buildup and clean with Finish dishwasher detergent:

• Use Finish's Hard Water Booster with your detergent to boost performance. Designed to combat hard water, this booster prevents mineral buildup on dishes.

• Hard-water dishwasher detergents are another option. Some brands offer dishwashing solutions for hard water. If Finish alone isn't strong enough, research these options.

• Hard water issues can be solved by installing a whole-home water softener. Water softeners prevent mineral buildup on dishes, plumbing, and appliances by removing minerals before they reach your dishwasher.

• In addition, regularly cleaning your dishwasher with Finish Dishwasher Cleaner can remove mineral buildup that may hinder cleaning.

• Fill your dishwasher's rinse aid dispenser with Finish Rinse Aid to prevent spotting and mineral residue.

• Finally, dishwasher loading must be correct for water and detergent to reach all surfaces. Avoid overfilling the dishwasher and follow your manual's loading instructions.
