Saving money on appliance maintenance with a water softener
12 September 2024
You could save around £181 a year on appliance maintenance by investing in a water softener. In worst case scenarios, the build-up of limescale can create blockages in pipework and lead to the premature failure of water heaters and other appliances.
This could impact your washing machine, dishwasher, shower, boiler and any other appliance in which water flows freely through the system.
If you’d like some tips on cleaning and descaling your washing machine, check out our helpful guide.
Yearly saving on appliance maintenance (including household appliances) is taken from data supplied by Harvey with the original data source being ONS – Census 2021.
