The residue may be caused from mineral deposits in your tap water. If stainless steel or metal pans (not non-stick), then you can try to remove by soaking in a vinegar and purified water solution and scrubbing with steel wool. If this doesn't work, you can try an industrial cleaner designed for removing rust, lime, and calcium. Be sure to rinse very thoroughly before cooking food in the pot or pan again.
If pots and pans are coated with a non-stick surface, then you definitely don't want to use steel wool to remove it since it will remove the non-stick surface along with any residue. The non-stick surface itself may enable the deposits to be removed with a scrubber designed for non-stick surfaces. Try scubbing it off first with the appropriate cleaning pad in an area along the side of the pot or pan using only light pressure. Only you will be able to determine if the pressure needed to remove the deposits is 'safe' enough to try it on the bottom, or the remaining cooking surface.
