Cheap wont always save you money

People invest a lot of money in purchasing a water softener and then some make the mistake of thinking that cheap salt will save them money. In the image above you can compare cheap block salt on the left against Kinetico block salt on the right. I know which one I would rather put into my machine. Dissolving the cheap salt block into a water softeners brine well has resulted in a sand residue being left over this contributing to the premature death of the block salt softener it was put into. So the hard lesson learnt by the customer was buy a quality product that you can rely on. Good quality salt will help extend the life of your investment avoiding costly repair bills or the need for a complete replacment.
