Video: What is solar salt used for?

The primary function for Diamond Crystal® Solar Naturals® salt is for use in a water softener to transform hard water into soft water. The crystals are a naturally white, opaque, high purity salt.  Using solar salt in your softener can help minimize the accumulation of brine tank residue - helping to keep the water softener clean and trouble-free. 

The solar salt crystals may also be used as an ice melting product. Quantity and melting action will depend upon temperature and thickness of the ice and packed snow. It is important to follow directions on the packaging for appropriate use.
