Living in a hard water area can lead to many hard water problems within washing machines and dishwashers. Build-up of limescale leads to an increased chance of odour-causing bacteria settling. If your appliance gives off bad smells or your dishwasher leaves cloudy glasses, it most probably means there is a scum build-up in the machine.
