Does anyone know why the price of potassium choloride is approx $18/40
lb bag? I bought it 6 months ago and it was about $8/40 lb bag.

Some people use potassium choloride because water softeners put a small
amount of salt in the water. If you're on a low-sodium diet it's supposed to
be helpful.

You can use either but salt is cheaper.

To OP: Maybe the price of fuel? Seems to be making everything go up. My
suggestion is to shop around and for the best deal and buy the store out.

When I get my salt at Costco I get $400 lbs at a time.

How many years does 400 lbs. service your softener?
