Salt Type alk)ws you to choose between sodium chloride (NaC1), which is regular softener salt,

or potassium chloride (KC1), which is an alternative to sodium chloride. KC1 (potassium chloride)

may be used if the user of the water softener is on a sodium restricted diet and is concerned about

the amount of sodium in the water supply. See "Water Conditioning hfformation" section.

KC1 should be used in accordance to the following steps to help give you years of maintenance

free service.

Place one bag only of KC1 in your softener at a time (the salt storage tank should contain no more

than 60 pounds of KC1 at any one time);

NOTE: A softener using KC1 should not be placed in areas with high temperature changes

or high humidity (KC1 will harden in these environments and may make the softener

inoperable);
