Hard water solutions using Norwex

Hard water can result in lime (calcium and magnesium) buildup over time. This may result in your Enviro Cloth feeling harder or perhaps almost seeming to repel water and does not wet easily. One solution is to soak your cloths in undiluted vinegar for a few minutes, wring out well, and then launder. If you add vinegar to the rinse cycle it may help reduce this problem in the future and will soften your other fabrics as well.
 
For deep cleaning toilet bowls use Norwex DeScaler: pour a bucket of water into the toilet to remove most of the water. Spray the built up area with DeScaler, let sit for about 2 minutes, then clean with the Sanira Brush.
 
For tough soap scum, hard water marks in your tub and any other difficult job, use Norwex Cleaning Paste and an Enviro Cloth - there’s nothing like it. A little goes a long way!
 
Because well water does not contain any chlorine, this may result in odour issues with any Norwex cloth(s). To remove, rinse in vinegar, then boil the cloth(s) in a pot on the stove for about 10 minutes to thoroughly remove/kill any bacteria or organisms that may be causing the odour.
