Dishwasher cleaning products include descalers, degreasers, machine cleaners, detergents and salt. Each has a different function, so check the appliance instructions and intended maintenance task before selecting a product.
Descalers remove mineral deposits, while degreasers and machine cleaners help tackle grease and internal residues. Dishwasher salt supports the water softening system, and detergent is used during normal washing cycles.
The range includes Bosch Siemens dishwasher care cleaners and cleaning sachets, Whirlpool Wpro degreasers and descalers, and Kilrock dishwasher cleaning treatments.
Smeg dishwasher tablets, descaling and degreasing products are also listed, alongside Electrolux dishwasher salt. Check the product format, pack quantity and intended application before ordering.

Not necessarily. Machine cleaning tablets and sachets maintain the appliance, while dishwasher detergent cleans dishes. Use each product for its specified purpose.
Dishwasher salt regenerates the appliance's water softener to help prevent scale formation. It does not replace a descaling treatment where one is required.
Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule. Cleaning and descaling frequency depend on usage, water hardness and the appliance's condition.

Dishwasher cleaning and maintenance products are designed to tackle grease, food residues, mineral deposits and other contamination that can accumulate during regular use. The range includes dishwasher descalers, machine cleaners, degreasers, cleaning sachets, detergent tablets and dishwasher salt. These products serve different purposes, so identify the required maintenance treatment and check the appliance manufacturer's recommendations before ordering.
Dishwasher descalers help remove limescale deposits caused by minerals in the water supply, while degreasers and machine cleaners target grease and internal residues. Dishwasher detergents are formulated for washing dishes, whereas dishwasher salt supports the appliance's built-in water softening system. Some maintenance products combine cleaning and descaling functions. Check whether the treatment is intended for an empty maintenance cycle, a normal washing programme or a separate application procedure.
The Maddocks range includes genuine original Bosch Siemens dishwasher care cleaners, cleaning sachets and appliance descalers. Available formats include liquid dishwasher maintenance treatments, powdered cleaners and multipacks of machine cleaning sachets. Whirlpool Wpro products include dishwasher degreasing powder and descaling treatments, while Kilrock offers dedicated dishwasher cleaning and descaling solutions. Check the product description for its intended application, pack size and treatment instructions.
Smeg Professional Home Care products include dishwasher detergent tablets, descaling products and combined descaling and degreasing treatments. The range also includes Electrolux dishwasher salt for suitable appliances with built-in water softening systems. Dishwasher salt should be added to the designated salt reservoir according to the appliance instructions and must not be confused with dishwasher detergent. Maintenance cleaners, descalers and washing detergents should each be used only for their stated purpose.
Dishwasher descalers are formulated to remove mineral deposits, particularly limescale caused by calcium and magnesium compounds in hard water. Degreasers target grease and oily residues that accumulate within the appliance, while dishwasher machine cleaners may address several types of internal contamination. Some products combine cleaning, degreasing and descaling functions. The appropriate treatment depends on the appliance's maintenance requirements and the type of residue being removed. Check the individual product instructions and use the recommended programme, dosage and application method.
Dishwasher machine cleaning sachets and detergent tablets are intended for different tasks. Maintenance cleaning sachets help remove deposits and contamination from the dishwasher itself, often during a specified cleaning programme. Dishwasher detergent tablets are formulated to clean dishes and utensils during normal washing cycles. A machine cleaning treatment should not be used as a substitute for washing detergent unless the manufacturer specifically permits that application. Always check whether the product should be used in an empty dishwasher and follow the stated dosage and programme instructions.
Dishwasher salt and descaler perform different functions. Salt is used to regenerate the ion-exchange water softener fitted to many dishwashers, helping reduce scale formation during normal operation. Descalers are maintenance treatments designed to remove existing mineral deposits. Using a descaler does not replace the need to replenish dishwasher salt where the appliance requires it. Salt requirements depend on the machine's water softening system and the local water hardness setting. Follow the dishwasher manufacturer's instructions and use salt specifically intended for dishwashers.
Dishwasher cleaning and descaling intervals depend on appliance usage, water hardness, the type of detergent used and the manufacturer's maintenance guidance. Regularly used machines may accumulate grease and food residues more quickly, while hard water can increase the risk of limescale formation. Clean accessible filters and check the spray arms according to the appliance instructions. Use a dishwasher machine cleaner or descaler at the recommended intervals, following the treatment's specified dosage and programme. Some dishwashers provide maintenance reminders, but these should be interpreted alongside the manufacturer's instructions for the exact model.
