Frequently Asked Questions

How much Cascade detergent should I use in my dishwasher?
For Cascade powder and gel detergents, start by trying the recommended amount on the back label. There may be times when it’s necessary to use a little more or less, depending on your dish load and water hardness. For something even simpler, try Cascade ActionPacs. Each pac provides the perfect dose of clean, so you know exactly how much to use, every time.

How do ActionPacs work?
Cascade, Cascade Complete, and Cascade Platinum ActionPacs make dishwashing even simpler by taking out the guesswork. They’re easy to use because they require no measuring, unwrapping, crumbling, or cleanup. ActionPacs contain a higher concentration of detergents than powders and gels, plus built-in rinse and shine ingredients. To use, simply pop an ActionPac into your dishwasher’s detergent cup, close the cup lid, and let your dishwasher run.

My dishwasher manual says to fill both cups with detergent. Do I need to use two ActionPacs?
Nope. You only need one ActionPac because the formula is concentrated. They’re designed to give you a convenient, simple way to dose detergent with no premeasuring.

Do I need to pre-rinse my dishes?
Actually, with Cascade Complete powder, gel, and ActionPacs, and Cascade Platinum ActionPacs, you can skip the pre-scrub and load your dishes in right off the table. These formulas contain advanced cleaning and rinsing power, so pre-rinsing isn’t necessary.

What if I have hard water?
Water hardness varies depending on where you live. The good news is all of our ActionPacs are formulated with water softeners to help fight hard water deposits on your dishes.

How can I prevent filming on my glasses and dishware?
Here are some simple steps you can take to help keep your glasses film-free:

  1. Fill both detergent cups for each load (if you’re using Cascade ActionPacs, you only need to use one).
  2. Try using Cascade Rinse Aid, which protects surfaces and boosts drying to prevent spots and streaks.
  3. Dishwasher water temperature should be at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Try running hot water at the kitchen sink before starting the load to help reach this temperature.
  4. To help prevent low water pressure, make sure that no other water is being used in the house (showers, grass watering, washing machine, etc.).
  5. Be sure the dishwasher is loaded so that no items block the sprayer arms and prevent adequate water from reaching all the dishes.
  6. Once a month, use Cascade Dishwasher Cleaner to help remove limescale, grease, and odor buildup that can contribute to spotting and filming.

Great for hard to clean dishes!
5 Stars
Great for hard to clean dishes!
I absolutely love using the Cascade Platinum ActionPacs dishwasher detergent with Dawn. They are great at getting your dishes clean the first time around. I thought my dishwasher was broke at one time, until I was asked to review the Cascade Platinum ActionPacs dishwasher detergent with Dawnt. All I had to use is one pack and I was hooked. All I did was put it in the dishwasher and start the load running. My dishes came out cleaner than ever. I also like the fact that they smell good too. You do not have to prewash your dishes and it clean stuck on food in one wash. As you can see by the picture below, one of the plates had been ran through the dishwasher with my normal detergent, and the other one had been ran through with the Cascade Platinum ActionPacs dishwasher detergent. The one on the right is much cleaner than the one on the left. I will not be buying anything else but Cascade products from now on. Instead of my usual rinse aid, I know I will be using Cascade, as well. I trust P&G products because I've been using them since I was young. My mom and grandmother always trusted them, so there's no reason for me not to. The triple action chamber provides the best cleaning for all your dishes and helps prevent hard water filming so that your silverware and dishes sparkle. Mine do, and I highly recommend that you get these too!I received this product at a discount to allow me to test it, and then write a review based on the results of my experience. I am not affiliated with this company and I never promise to provide a positive review when offered a discount. I tested the product thoroughly so that you may make an informed decision.
