Help! We just refilled our Water Softener with Rock Salt. Ever since
we did that I cannot get my hair clean. As soon as I get out of the
shower it is greasy and limp. Is there a setting on the softener that
we need to change? I am using the same shampoo and washing in the same
manner than I always have....

Please... I have been washing my hair with bottled water to avoid this
problem!

Much thanks,

Jennifer

Your problem is the Rock Salt. Rock Salt can have dirt and contaminants in
it that will plug up your softener. Use Morton salt in the yellow bag.

Rock salt in the small blue box??????

Not the right stuff. As was previously said, this stuff is FULL of
junk, dirt, oil......

What you need is sold in 25 to 40 pound bags at Walmart, Home Depot,
Lowes, Sams Club, and many of the large grocery store chains. Yellow is
the color of the Sodium Chloride bag, but there are several other colors
as well, green, purple, orange, red. And more than Morton makes it.

The safest thing to do is to DUMP the salt in it now, and go find a
yellow bag of Morton. Run a cleaning cycle at least once perhaps twice
to flush the residues out of the resin. These bags cost $5-$9 each
depending on where you buy them and the particulars of the contents.
