Prevention

Prevention is really the most effective, practical and cost effective way how to keep your appliances lime scale free. To prevent lime scale setting on your taps wipe them clean with cloth after each time they get water drops on them. Regular house cleaning from professionals can also prevent build up of lime scale.

For dishwashers it’s best to use special salt products that prevent your dishwasher from damage.

No need to use chemicals

If you prefer not using chemicals in your home then you could use tried and tested tips from women like you. One of the best products is baking soda or citric acid. Apply one of these onto lime scale and leave for a bit (the more lime scale the longer you have to leave it working) and then rinse with clean water.

But beware!  Chrome taps can be damaged by these products, therefore it’s best to use products specially for chrome taps recommended by the manufacturer.
