HI, Well I just got done chipping all the old salt out of my softener it took
me two hours. Now a friend of mine is bringing me some new salt. Should I put
some bleach or some thing in the tank before putting the new salt in???
THANKS A LOT ROB FROM MINNESOTA

Hi Rob,
I've got a water softener in my house and every year I have someone come in
to service the unit. Part of this job includes cleaning the brine bucket.
I get the same very solid block of stuff at the bottom of the bucket that
needs to be broken up and disposed of. The block is simply impurities from
the salt that build up over the year. The best way I've found to break-up
the block is to use an old screwdriver or chisel and a rubber mallet. It
takes a little time but it's not difficult. Good luck.
Take care,
Ed Przybylek

HI, I have a sears water softener and it seem to be working all right but
the salt in it is all hard like a big peace of cement. Also it has not
needed any salt for over 6 months now so I really wonder if it is really
working right. Just to let you know I have a well here do you guys think I
should chop up all the salt and get it out of the softener and put new salt
in it???
THANKS ROB FROM MINNESOTA
