“How well will the dishwasher clean using well water? We're in the market for a new dishwasher. We are on well water that has a noticable iron and calcium content. Our water pressure is less than public water supply pressure. Our current dishwasher leaves a white film on dishes, glasses, and silverware. We've tried many detergents in liquid and pouch form with Jet Dry without success. How well will this dishwasher clean given these constraints?”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I am not sure, but I would advise using a recommended dish washer soap and liquid rinse that is recommended for your appliance. I also use "Finish Jet Dry" that come in a small basket that is attached to the middle or upper rack (make sure it does not interfere with the fan blade rotation). That would give you double spot protection. I am happy with my LG product.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can fix this problem only through filtration of your supply and adding a pressure tank. This will cost about $4K, but will save you in appliances, water heaters, and valves. I find it hard to believe your well system doesn't already have this in place. Maybe it is just in need of maintenance.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Other dishwashers use a 1 time water quantity of 6 liters, resulting in a total of maximum 38 liters used. However, LG dishwashers use a 1 time water quantity of 3.8 liters, resulting in a total of only 8-10 liters used. In case of hard water, it is necessary for additional water to be used to prevent the white spots. With our LG dishwashers, even if Extra Rinse is selected, it will use about 20 liters total. This means that even if Extra Rinse is added, LG dishwashers will use less water than other brands. Competitors who also manufacture energy efficient dishwashers are also experiencing the same claims. The only solution is to use additional water. Thank you.
