Corrosion will destroy the tank's fittings/liner. Quickly.
So quickly, in fact, that it is mentioned multiple times in the installation manual to not do lots of things (no salt-fed softeners in bold/red/all-the-things).
- tass 6mo agoPossibly obvious point, water softeners add salt to the water.
- ProllyInfamous 6mo agoCorrect. This is the reason.
- rstupek 6mo agoNot all water softeners add salt to the water. nuvoh2o sells a water softener that does not use salt.
- ProllyInfamous 6mo agoWhile this may be true (have no knowledge | how does it work w/o salts?), the OEM will immediately void your warranty if you use any sort of homeowner water softener, per both Rheem and AOS installation manuals. I have both; mine are warranted "platinum|10yrs" — why chance it?
