uk brands of potassium chloride dishwasher salt
Hi and merry christmas
Anyone in the UK no of any brands of water softner salt that is potassium chloride? I have looked and looked and the ones I can find info on have
sodium chloride in.
NO supermarkets near me have any that say potassium chloride, a couple dont say whats in them but dont say sodium free as well.
So any UK brands I can get online?
Thanks everyone

Check at a home improvement store. Do you have Sifto brand salt over there? I bought 25kg of potassium chloride at Home Depot in the form of large
pellets

Hi
No we dont have a home improvement store for around 60-70 miles, hence the need to buy it online. P&P costs a fortune but its no cheaper going to
pick it up.
I have looked on ebay and amazon but cant find it, I can find it as a chemical no problem but then your paying top prices for 200g.

Possibly, in my search I saw a paper reporting the results of elevated potassium levels due to softeners.
