  If you live in a hard water area, use of a water softener is    

 

recommended to control the buildup of scale through the    

 

water system in the dryer. Over time, the buildup of lime  

 

scale may clog different parts of the water system, which will  

 

reduce product performance. Excessive scale buildup may  

 

lead to the need for certain part replacement or repair.
