You can wash dishes without detergent in the dishwasher

Today on the market there are a huge number of all kinds of tablets and powders for dishwashers. These funds have a variety of costs, but according to users of dishwashers, they still have to spend a "tidy" amount on a yearly basis. Some "economists" generally prefer to use the funds from time to time, washing the dishes just with hot water without any additives. Can I wash dishes without detergent at all? What will be the result? Would it harm the dishwasher? We will look for answers to all these questions.

The consequences of such washing

The manufacturer insists that you need to use the dishwasher correctly, that is, according to the instructions. And the instruction informs us that it is impossible to start washing dishes without salt and dishwashing detergent. What does this threaten? Let's get it right. Suppose we load dishes into a dishwasher and start it without salt and powder. The following may happen:

• the dishes will be washed well and will shine with cleanliness;
• the dishes will wash well, but stains and drops from dried water will remain on it;
• dishes will be washed satisfactorily;
• the dishes will remain completely dirty.

As you can see, washing dishes without funds is a lottery, either washed off, or not. Most often, the result of washing is far from perfect. You will spend time and resources, but the expected result will never be. If you wash the dishes without salt constantly, then this threatens to destroy the ion exchanger, which in turn will lead to breakage of the dishwasher and the accumulation of lime deposits in it.

To better understand the effect of washing dishes without detergents, open a faucet with hot water and place a dirty plate under the stream. Holding the plate for a while, you will see that a stream of water washed away most of the dirt. This happens in the dishwasher.

If you put salt in the dishwasher, but do not put detergent, there will be no harm to the equipment, however, you will also not wash heavily soiled dishes. Conclusion: wash the dishes in the dishwasher without powder and tablets, but with the addition ofsalts for dishwashers quite possible. But this procedure will be extremely inefficient, although it is up to the user to decide, of course.

How to replace powder and tablets?

What to do if the dishwashing detergent runs out and a whole mountain of dishes has to be washed in a dishwasher without detergents than anything? How can I replace the dishwashing detergent until I can reach the store and buy normal pills or powder, that is, a couple of times? Some suggest replacing the PMM powder with conventional washing powder. We do not recommend this.

1. The powder (for hand washing) foams heavily. Creeping puffs of foam can seriously damage the electronics of the typewriter, resulting in serious damage.
2. Any washing powder contains quite toxic components that can get into the human digestive system from dishes. You can’t expect anything good from this chemistry.
3. From the washing powder on the dishes will remain white stains, which then have to be washed by hand.

Other "experimenters" suggest putting a small amount of mustard powder instead of dishwashing detergent. This option generally disappears, since the mustard powder not only does not wash the dishes, but it also has the property of swelling and clogging the nozzles of the sprayers. As a result, you will not normally wash the dishes, and you will hammer all the filters with the nozzles of the dishwasher with mustard. Then you have to scrape it out of all the cracks.

There is still a suggestion to add a little baking soda instead of dishwashing detergent. Like, it dissolves dirt well and helps to improve the washing result by several times.We tried this option and did not notice any particular difference. At least soda in the dishwasher will not hurt, so you can try putting it in the powder compartment. But it is best to purchase a normal product and wash the dishes properly, and not engage in outright nonsense.

So, to wash the dishes in the machine without a special tool, but with the addition of salt is possible. This will not hurt the technique, but the quality of washing the dishes will be very doubtful. In our opinion, it is better to wash the dishes as described in the instructions for the dishwasher, so that later you will not regret anything. Good luck
