Water hardness recommendations
z
Use the table below to determine the optimal water hardness setting. Your local water
company will be able to help.
z
If you have a household water softener installed, use the setting recommended for water
with a hardness under 100 ppm/6 gpg, irrespective of the water hardness in your area.
z
If your water hardness is above 625 ppm/36 gpg, the wash performance of your
DishDrawer™ Dishwasher will decline over time. The rinse aid setting should be at 5.
*ppm = parts per million | **gpg = grains per gallon.
