If its not broke, fix it until it is!
Question on salt setting, I just installed a watts generic softner, a4000 resin Clack valve 1 inch.
My hardness is 20 grains (yes I have a iron filter) and little manganese. I Do not want to complicate things (I have never owned a softner in 30 years on this well water) . just want to try it.
I am not sure about what should I set the salt setting to. It is a 48000 capacity softner, set to 38000. Should I set salt to 12lbs, factory programming is 9lbs. So in short leave it at 9lbs or change it 12lbs.
Two of us in house and about 250 gallons a day usage (yes she uses a lot of water lol)
Please keep it simple, I am new and do not want to split atoms here.
Edit the 45-48000 capacity oops
