new washing mashine & hard water

[Coco H]

Do I need to do anything special to my new washing machine - we are in a very hard water area?

I have heard of calgon (cue irritating jingle) and something called magnoballs

Depends on your water area, if you ring your water company they can advise you of the optimum setting etc.......

The moment I saw the thread title I thought 'la la la washing machines live longer with Calgon'.


I wouldn't say the water round here is hard but it easily sees off Scousers.
