I use sodium in the TM softener. When I tried potassium, it would cake up and harden into a rock at the bottom of the brine tank. I don't know why...maybe all the different hardnesses of water in my service area.

You also cannot run hot water through the softener...at least Kinetico. That will definatley cause brine tank problems!

No need for any of that stuff..............We only have clean, soft water here in Georgia. That's why we don't have to pre-vac.
