We use SG Automatic Dishwasher Pacs and have just installed a water softening system

Submitted by Jim14580 on Tue, Dec. 15, 2009

I've seen posts recommending less dishwasher detergent when using softened water - are SG Dishwasher Pacs too much detergent for softened water?

‹ Vegetable-based cleansers - are they safe for the yard? Liquid Fabric Softener and Spray Starch? ›

We have used the pacs and

We have used the pacs and are very happy with the results - glassware, flatware and dishes are sparkling clean!

Both my wife and I appreciate the convenience of the pre-measured pacs.

Water Softener Question

The dishwasher packs are designed for use in a wide range of conditions. They should work well in softened water. Because washing conditions vary widely, in terms of water hardness, machine type, water temperature, etc., the answer to this question truly has to come from home use of the product.If greater flexibility is desired, try the auto dish powder (especially if coffee and teas stains are an issue) or auto dish gel (for good solubility and great convenience).
Have you tried the pacs yet and what is your experience? Would love to have your input for more product knowledge. Thanks, Sue
