Definition

What is it: Citric acid dishwasher cleaning is a process of utilizing a natural weak organic acid found in citrus fruits to break down internal grime. It effectively addresses issues such as mineral deposits and hard water stains that accumulate in humid climates like Singapore.

What is it used for: It is used for descaling heating elements, clearing clogged spray arms, and restoring water pressure. The process also helps in neutralizing musty odors caused by trapped food particles and grease.

What it is not: This method is not a substitute for mechanical repairs such as fixing a faulty heating element, a damaged spray arm, or a completely clogged pump.
