1. Just Add Vinegar – It’s not just for chips you know!
To remove limescale from your kettle with vinegar, try the following steps:
• Fill a cup with half water and the other half with white vinegar.
• Throw into your kettle, bring to the boil and leave overnight.
The acid in the vinegar helps break down the limescale build-up and all you need to do the next morning is simply rinse out your kettle. You should have a sparkling, crystal clean hot water kettle again. (well, at least for a few days, until the limescale starts building up again)
2. Try Lemon Juice – Great for Gin and Tonics, Also Great for Removing Limescale
The citric acid in lemon juice works better in a lot of cases, than vinegar, in removing limescale from hot water kettles. Lemon juice also leaves a refreshing lemon smell in the bottom of you kettle.
To get limescale removed with lemon juice, try the following steps:
• Fill a cup with 50% water and 50% lemon juice and boil the mixture in your kettle.
• Keep overnight and rinse out in the morning.
You’ll soon be having that perfect cup of tea again, without worrying about limescale - what’s floating in the bottom of your kettle.
Remove Limescale Forever by installing a Water Softener
Of course, both these limescale removing solutions only have a temporary effect. As the limescale builds-up, these limescale removal methods will have to be repeated each week or once a month, depending on how much limescale you have in your water supply.
To remove 100% limescale forever from your home and save up to €1000 per year for your family, calculate your water softener cost savings online.
