I’d like to buy a water softener; I’ve been looking at the BWT that ScrewFix sells and they are about 500-600£ (they’ve probably gone uo in price in the last year)
Other brands like Harvey must be over 1000£, even though they don’t seem to want to advertise their prices and I can’t really be bothered to fill in their contact form to ask for a price
However I can easily find a used Harvey with dual tank for 200£-300£
Does anyone have a figure of running costs per liter of water?
I can buy 10kg of salt for £9.5 at ScrewFix which should fit the BWT softeners
The Harvey salt is about 4kg and costs £13, which is a lot more expensive; I’m under the impression that you have to use their own salt, but correct me if I’m wrong
Both BWT and Harvey are metered; can I assume that the efficiency is the same between the two? Without any further investigation I would assume that the BWT is cheaper to run
Am I correct?
