Our Salt

Salt is necessary to keep your water softener running while supplying your household with softened water 24 hours a day. The Minimax Innova requires Mini Curve Salt and the Minimax M3 works with block salt, both are a much more convenient form of salt – easy to carry and high quality.The individual mini curve salt blocks weigh in at 2.15kg, with traditional blocks weighing 4kg each; compared compared to the heavy 25kg tablet salt bags, this means they are easier to load, carry and store.

What are are the benefits 

10 year guarantee

Designed by the leading manufacturer

Made in the UK

Made from recycled plastic

Once placed in the water softener, the salt slowly dissolves to create a brine solution in the base of the water softener.This brine solution is an important part the water softener’s regeneration or “cleaning” cycle.
When the resin in the water softener’s cylinder has reached its max capacity for capturing hard minerals, the brine solution enters the cylinder to clean the resin and it removes the hardness minerals from the cylinder.

I cannot understand why people in hard water areas do not invest in a water softener. In 14 years we have had no scale build up anywhere, we have never had to clean the shower head, and our central heating has never had to be drained down.

We’ve had a Minimax for about a month now and we’re wondering why we didn’t get one years ago. With the water being scale-free, faucets, taps and sinks get shiny with just a wipe and no cleaning detergent.
