Be Salt Wise To Reduce Salt Pollution

Efforts are being made to reduce salt pollution in our drinking water sources and natural waterways. In this video from Today’s Home Remodeler TV, we show how being salt wise with your water softener can make a big impact in reducing salt pollution. Host Stuart Keith starts at the Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District Treatment Plant to meet with Kathy Lake to learn about their treatment process. We’ll see how too much salt is entering the facility through wastewater coming from water softeners and the environmental impact it has on our freshwater ecosystems. We then head to the Plumbers Local 75 Training Center for some solutions with instructor Bob Lanphear who shows how your water softener works, ways to reduce salt usage and when it should be replaced.
