User questions & answers

Question:	Our Bosch cleans dishes great but often leaves a foul order. Have cleaned filter, removed excess water, pre-rinsed dishes. Will this help
Answer:	Agreed. Also cheaper at Home Depot, Lowe’s...
Question:	how long does 2 packs last
Answer:	It is 44lbs. Being able to sell this bag for so cheap is crazy. Shipping cost are outrageous on this item.
Question:	Is this safe to use with septic system
Answer:	Because it weighs 44lbs and the shelf doesn't have to pay shipping to your shopping cart.
Question:	Is this 2 8lb bags or 2 4 lb bags
Answer:	It's being shipped with Amazon prime 2 day shipping. Since this bag weighs 40 lb, it's quite expensive to ship. This increases the cost for the sellers, which in turn causes the selling price to go up.If your able to go to the store and pick it up, it's definitely cheaper. However if you need convenient delivery to your home, this is the way to go.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work for Whirlpool/Kitchenaid dishwashers
Answer:	This product is labeled incorrectly. This is dishwasher salt. It is not detergent. Do not use it for detergent. I have a Thermadore which has the extra place to add salt in the bottom of the unit. It helps with hard water stains and lets u use less detergent. Works well for the proper use.
Question:	How to use this product
Answer:	My Dishwasher has a built-in water softener. There is a salt reservoir in the bottom of the dishwasher that needs refilled with this salt occasionally so that the dishwasher can work effectively.
Question:	What does the date on the top of the box signify? Date packaged or expiration date?? Just received 2 boxes dated 7/31/2018. Thx
Answer:	Salt does not expire! the date is the production date!
Question:	is this salt recommended by bosch
Answer:	I use this salt product with my Bosch dishwasher SHE88PW55N. It works great with our city water & it’s hardness.

Finish Power Up All in 1 Dishwasher Rinse Aid Booster takes dishwashing to another level, especially if you live in a hard water area with four boosting actions that work with your dishwasher detergent to boost your dishwashing and give you one simple solution for all of your dishwashing issues.

• Removes spots, residue and hard water film
• Removes tough, bleachable stains such as tea
• Removes mineral build up in your dishwashing machine
• Fights odor and leaves behind a crisp, lemon scent
• Finish Quality Product

User questions & answers

Question:	How does this product compare to the Finish Jet Dry Dishwasher Cleaner Liquid
Answer:	I have never used the Finish Jet Dry Dishwasher Cleaner but I think it removes buildup with the machine itself. The Finish Power Up Rinse Aid is an additive to the usual dish washing detergent to remove tough stains and fights tough spots and film due to hard water (in you residential area). In my experience, it helps with stains, but still leaves spots on glassware. I have taken to using plain baking soda, which I found to be cheaper and and more effective at cleaning dishes and keeping the dishwasher from buildup.
Question:	how many loads in a bottle
Answer:	Probably 25-30
Question:	Can you use this instead of a rinse aid, or do you still need a rinse aid in addition to this and your normal detergent
Answer:	I use this instead of another rinsing aid and it works fine to keep glasses sparkling clean. Otherwise they come out very spotty, if not coated with residue. Not sure if it is the water or that my machine just needs a cleaning with the "Power Up" every time. I only use less than a teaspoon every wash.
Question:	Is it placed in the rinse aid slot or in the detergent slot
Answer:	My machine has a "pre-wash" slot and that's where we use finish...we use cascade detergent and jet dry in rinse aid slot. Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this salt better than Finish salt
Answer:	I have no idea. And, I don't notice any difference with or without any salt at all.
Question:	The product that came does not have English on it and just want to confirm this is salt for dishwashing machines

Question:	If I don't have a Miele dishwasher, where would I put this salt? Thanks
Answer:	Remove the lower rack of your dishwasher and look for the salt cap in the dishwasher's floor area (inside the dishwasher). If your dishwasher has one, you'll see it. Just unscrew the salt cap and add the slat into the opening. If you don't see a salt cap inside your dishwasher then you won't be able to add salt to it. Not all dishwashers have that feature.
Question:	Considering buying Miele dishwasher. How frequently must you refill the salt dispenser, and how many boxes (approx.) do you buy per month/year
Answer:	We've had our Miele dishwasher more than four years and I'm just now ordering its third box of salt, counting the box it came with. Each box has lasted us about 25 months.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does anyone use this with their Bosch dishwasher? If that is ideal for the Miele dishwashers but I'm assuming they all are the same
Answer:	This salt works great in my Bosch Dishwasher. Don't know about Miele salt.
Question:	What will this salt do to my septic system
Answer:	I buy Finish because I've never seen another "brand" of dishwasher salt I've ever heard of. If Miele has salt and you have their dishwasher, use Miele salt. I honestly think that as long as it's a recognizable "name" (Mortons, Finish, etc.) company, it probably doesn't matter which one you use.
Question:	I have an LG dishwasher, where exactly do I put the salt
Answer:	It doesn’t expire as long as it isn’t exposed to humidity. Even then it doesn’t really expire. If you live on the coast and or a high humid area it wouldn’t be a great purchase. If you live in Bullhead City AZ, go for it.
Question:	I want Somat Salt for my Fisher/Paykel. What weight is 1.2k packaging? How does that equal to pounds
Answer:	prices are crazy right now. I think it's all due to the virus.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between ro65n and ro12n
Answer:	Thank you for your question. The ResCare will help clean-up the resin beads, which may help with the water flow output draining from the backwash and rinse cycles. If it doesn't help, we would suggest having a professional water treatment dealer check out your water softener to make sure that it's working correctly.
Question:	What is the difference between their "Rust Out" and "Iron Out" products? thanks in advance

Clean Your Water Softener With Rust Out For Better Performance

Rust Out softener rust remover chemically removes iron and rust build-up that coats the resin beds and fouls the softener. This iron build-up is not totally removed during normal regeneration of a water softener. Using Rust Out softener rust remover in a water softener will eliminate rust and foreign matter from the resin bed which increases the life of the softener and reduces rust staining on household fixtures and other surfaces. We recommend using the softener rust remover regularly as preventative maintenance to ensure the softening and recharging efficiency of the softener's resin bed. Additionally, in applications where iron is present you can use our well water formula to fight annoying rust stains.

Water Softeners:

Rust Out softener rust remover dissolves the iron in the mineral bed and is rinsed from the softener much the same as salt brine.

First Application:

Dissolve 1 cup in 1/2 gallon cold water. Pour directly into brine well (softeners with no brine well, pour directly into salt tank when salt level is low). Manually regenerate softener. Repeat for heavily fouled unit.

Preventative Maintenance:

Add 1/4 cup for every 40lbs. of salt added to brine tank. Layer to ensure a continuous dose with each regeneration.

General Purpose Cleaning:

Our softener rust remover works on dishwashers, dishes, glassware, white clothes or fabrics, and water softeners - follow directions on the back of the package.

Question:	Is there a bypass valve
Answer:	Yes. Similar in size to coarse sea salt but in tiny round balls.
Question:	I received this with the resin spilling out. How do I know how much is missing
Answer:	not sure, maybe call the water soft system company
Question:	i have rust stains around my new tilet bowl. I can remove them by soaking the bowl water with bleach. will this prevent these ugly stains from coming
Answer:	This is dishwasher salt. Ment for dishwashers that have built in soft water systems. I don't think brand would matter. Check your owners manual for specifics.
Question:	Does fine mesh resin bags come with the iron pro 2 combination water softener iron filter fleck 5600sxt? or do i need to buy some
Answer:	you *can* add the salt, but it won't help. In a dishwasher with a water softener the salt reacts with the resins in the softener, removing the calcium they extracted from the water. So, if you don't have the softener, it's just a waste of money to add salt
