How much Detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness. Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or spotting. Using too much detergent in soft water can cause permanent etching on glassware. Your local water company, water softener company or county extension agent can tell you the water hardness in your area.

More detergent may be needed if the phosphorus content is 8.7% or less.

The phosphorus content is shown on the detergent label.

*12 grains and higher is extremely hard water. Detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is recommended to improve water quality and dishwashing performance.
