Calcium Deposits - How to remove

By Hklbrries

Dear Heloise: A few months ago, while helping my dad with some things in our house, we could not figure out how to get calcium deposits off the shower head in his bathroom. The water was barely flowing.

He dismantled the shower head and soaked it in a bowl of vinegar. Within 30 minutes, it was perfectly clean and void of any blockage. My mother, who always uses vinegar, and Heloise knew what they were doing!

Our water is full of calcium and leaves showers and sinks spotted! I had tried expensive bathroom and tile cleaners. Nothing succeeded until I started pouring straight vinegar over the calcium buildup. (Heloise here: Do NOT pour on real marble).

Vinegar has become my cleaner of choice. I just wanted to thank you.
