Block Salt for Water Softeners
Block salt is an essential element of a water softener as it helps to maintain overall efficiency.
Mineral build-up needs to be flushed out regularly so that the water softener can ‘regenerate’ itself, one cylinder at a time. The process works by the water meter measuring the optimal amount of water from the first cylinder, then flushing the minerals out with a mixture of soft water and sodium (salt). During this regeneration the second cylinder takes over to ensure soft water is provided to your home without interruption.
To keep this process running smoothly simply refill your softener’s salt using the TwinTec block salt, which is much easier to handle than loose salt.
