FAQs

What makes BWT Cure Cubes different from other water softener salts?

BWT Cure Cubes are manufactured to a high purity of 99.9% and are compliant with BS EN 973:2009. They are designed for rapid dissolution to ensure efficient brine production for water softener regeneration.

Are these tablets suitable for all water softeners?

They are compatible with a wide range of domestic and smaller commercial water softener systems, including BWT, Waterside, Aquadial, and Permutit. However, it's always best to check your specific water softener's manual for recommended salt type.

What is the purpose of the anti-caking agent?

The anti-caking agent (E535) prevents the salt tablets from sticking together and forming a solid mass. This ensures the salt remains free-flowing, easy to handle, and prevents wastage.

How often should I add salt to my water softener?

The frequency depends on your water usage and the hardness of your water. Consult your water softener's manual for specific guidance on monitoring salt levels and when to refill the salt compartment.

Can I use these tablets if my water softener is not a BWT brand?

Yes, BWT Cure Cubes are designed for broad compatibility and can be used in water softener systems from other leading brands like Waterside, Aquadial, and Permutit, provided they use tablet salt.

What does 'food grade quality' mean for salt tablets?

Food grade quality signifies that the salt meets strict purity standards, making it safe for use in processes that may indirectly come into contact with food, such as water softening for drinking water systems.

How should I store the 10kg bag of salt tablets?

Store the bag in a cool, dry place, away from moisture. Keeping the bag sealed when not in use will help maintain the quality of the salt and prevent caking.

Troubleshooting

Salt tablets are clumping or caking

The anti-caking agent (E535) helps prevent this. Ensure the bag is properly sealed after use and stored in a dry environment. If clumping occurs, gently break apart the larger clumps before adding to the softener.

Water softener not regenerating effectively

Check that the salt level is adequate and that the tablets are dissolving properly. Ensure there are no blockages in the brine line or valve. Verify that the salt used is compatible with your system and meets purity standards.

Salt tablets appear to be dissolving too quickly or too slowly

Ensure you are using the correct type of salt (tablet salt) for your water softener. Variations in water temperature can slightly affect dissolution rates, but significant issues may indicate a system problem or incompatible salt.
