Waukesha Soft Water E-mail

Misinformation: Waukesha Soft Water states "These so-called amazing low salt units have to regenerate multiple times for every one time other units regenerate and do not use 90% less salt. Ask exactly how much salt per month you should expect to use (average is 20 pounds per person)."

The Truth: Yes, our systems do regenerate more often AND they still use far less salt (although we never said 90% less). The true measure of any softener's efficiency is its GPP rating, or, Grains per Pound.
