A really silly post from me but my clothes washing machine has been playing up of late, sticking many times through the cycle having to manually coax it on to finish. Fed up and not wanting the expense of buying a new one, I removed the pipe attached to the water inlet and poured a teaspoon full of 'Tuz Ruhu' (strong acid bought from any supermarket) over the fine filter, clearing the calcium build up and now all is working perfectly.

I'll be talking about cats & dogs next!!

Take the filter out from the water inlet to the machine and throw away problem solved.

Msg 4

That's for inside the machine, it wouldn't help the inlet water muck!
