Who has one? Being on city water it’s almost a must, but I refuse to get one, despite Slavyanka’s complaints about the spots on the shower stall.
I just don’t like dumping, on average 10-15 lbs of salt a month into our water system. I know the city I used to live in drew water from a river and the place where I got bottled water showed ridiculous amounts of salt in the city water - which contributes to high blood pressure, not to mention what it does to other things.
I realize that a lot of that is also run-off from road salt, but I still don’t like contributing to it with a water softener. Doing a simple calculation if everyone in my city had a water softener unit in their house is mind-boggling.
Honestly, I’m surprised this isn’t something the environmentalists have cottoned onto.
