Psst. Want to know a secret? Here's a little known fact: You can use block salt in a tablet salt water softener and you can use tablet salt in a block salt softener.
Tablet salt is consumed at the same rate, costs a lot less than block salt and does exactly the same job in the water softener.

We actually sell more tablet salt than block salt nowadays.
