ACTIVE Dishwasher Cleaner Tablets 24-Pack — Monthly Descaler Pods, Citric Acid Limescale Remover & Deodorizer, Lemon-Citrus Scent

ACTIVE Dishwasher Cleaner and Deodorizer Tablets are monthly descaling pods that remove limescale, grease, and odors to restore dishwasher performance.

If your dishwasher smells, drips, or leaves cloudy glassware, these heavy-duty, septic-safe cleaner tablets use a citric acid–based formula and lemon-citrus fragrance to dissolve mineral buildup and trapped grime without harsh solvents. Each 24-pack provides simple, once-a-month maintenance for most residential and commercial automatic dishwashers — including Bosch, GE, LG, Samsung, Whirlpool and others — helping clear jets, tubes, filters and surfaces so the machine runs more efficiently.

How do these tablets remove limescale and mineral deposits?

The active ingredient is a concentrated citric acid powder designed to break down calcium and lime deposits that accumulate from hard water. When used in an empty dishwasher cycle, the tablet dissolves and flows through spray arms, jets and filters to loosen scale and rinse it away.

• Citric acid formulation targets calcium, lime and mineral film.
• Dissolves scale inside spray arms, tubes and filter areas.
• Designed to run in a self-clean or regular wash on an empty machine.
• Septic-safe and avoids harsh acids or corrosive solvents.

Will the cleaner remove odors and residue from food buildup?

Yes — the dual-action tablets both break down food residue and leave a light lemon-citrus scent to neutralize lingering smells. The cleaner helps clear the trapped grime that commonly causes musty or sour dishwasher odors.

• Breaks down grease and trapped food particles in hard-to-reach areas.
• Natural lemon-citrus fragrance refreshes the interior after cleaning.
• Use monthly or as-needed for persistent odors.
• Helps reduce foaming from trapped residues that can affect cycles.

How often should I use these tablets and how to use them safely?

For routine maintenance, one tablet per month in an empty dishwasher is recommended. If a deeper clean is required, run two separate cycles with one tablet each rather than doubling up, which can cause excess foam and affect function. Always monitor the first few uses to ensure compatibility with your machine.

• Place a single tablet in the bottom of an empty dishwasher and run a self-clean or normal wash.
• For heavier deposits, perform two individual cleaning cycles with one tablet each.
• Stop and allow drainage if you observe foam or leaking during the cycle.
• Compatible with most residential and commercial units; monitor during initial use.

Which dishwashers are compatible with these descaling pods?

These tablets are formulated for wide compatibility with most residential and commercial automatic dishwashers, including common brands and both plastic and stainless interiors. They are not specific to a single model, but supervision during the first use is advised to check for any unusual foaming or leaks.

• Compatible with GE, Bosch, Frigidaire, LG, Samsung, Whirlpool, Kitchenaid, Kenmore, Maytag and Amana.
• Works in machines with plastic or stainless steel interiors.
• Suitable for commercial and residential units with automatic cycles.
• Septic-safe formula for typical household septic systems.

Who is this for? ACTIVE Dishwasher Cleaner Tablets are ideal for homeowners and small businesses that want an easy monthly maintenance routine to combat hard water scale, grease buildup and unpleasant smells. If you use hard water, notice cloudy dishes, slower drains, or musty dishwasher odors, this 24-count kit offers a year’s worth of preventative cleaning with a fresh lemon-citrus finish — without concentrated solvents or complicated procedures.
