All the water softener salt we sell is pure Grade A PDV quality.
The purity of your water softener salt is critical to preventing damage to your softener and reducing product life.
As the salt market in the UK grows, we are seeing more sea & lake salt entering the UK market. It’s not being sold any cheaper than the top-quality Harvey product but brings with it several problems:
- Fine sand sediment, which can scratch the valve of a water softener, and
- Seafoam can fill the cylinder and create areas within it that are very difficult to regenerate and, therefore, can lead to hard water, and
- An oil residue from impurities in the water can coat the valve of the softener and prevent the efficient working of the unit, resulting in hard water.
The use of poor-quality salt will invalidate most manufacturer guarantees. Therefore, we guarantee the best salt purity when ordering your salt from Hydroworks. Read more about the importance of salt purity.
If you have been buying granular salt, please instead order 25kg tablet salt or 10kg tablet salt, which is much better for your water softener as it reduces wear and tear and improves the life expectancy of your machine.
