If you're not sure when you checked your salt tank last, it could be time to add more salt. But before you do, you need to know that it’s important to use correct salt in your brine tank AND the tank should be cleaned periodically. If you’re using ordinary pellets or block salt you run the risk of problems with your brine tank; a key component to providing your family with great tasting water. Why does the type of salt matter? Pellets are more likely to cause bridging in your brine (salt) tank. Bridging is a packed solid layer of salt that spans across the width of the brine tank and does not allow the salt level to drop. So, you may look into your brine tank and think you have plenty of salt, but the salt is actually raised above the water level and is not going into the system when it regenerates. This means your system is trying to clean itself without cleaner. Our salt is a professional brand of salt and it's cleaner than most other brands. What makes our green bags of salt even more special? They aren't pellets. They are solar salt composition but still have the rust remover additive. Not only do you get a better value for your money, but you're using the best product for your system! Additionally, your brine tank should be dumped and cleaned at least annually. Here are a few questions to consider:
Too busy or not sure how to clean the tank yourself? You'll need to let the salt run down so the brine tank is a maximum of 1 foot full and then give us a call to come out and clean the tank. We can even bring more salt or you can have your own salt available when we come to clean and we can add it for you. Proper salt AND brine tank cleaning is recommended to make sure that your system is working properly while providing you and your family with great water.
