HOW HARD IS YOUR WATER?

How hard is your water?

Limescale in the wash water builds up on the heating element and other vital parts of the washing machine and it deposits on the laundry, during every wash and at all temperatures.

HOW DOES CALGON WORK?

Calgon has a unique formulation with active ingredients being polycarboxylates which softens hard water, preventing limescale from forming in the first place. It is not a descaler, it is purely a preventative - which means that the sooner you introduce Calgon into your daily washing routine, the better!
