    Contact who ever supplied it. They should specify what they recommend.
    I presume they put salt into it, did they leave any bag after them with branding for the type of salt used.

    Or google "water softener salt galway" and you'll get a list of suppliers.

    The main supplier of Axal Pro salt can be found at ...

    www.salt.ie


    pricing looks a bit squiffey on their site, but they do discounts for big regular volumes, or more so their sub suppliers to the west - these are usually the lowest pricing around

    I saw a flier from Chadwicks in Galway last month and they had Axal on promotion, 10 bags for €65 If my memory serves me right.

    that's probably right enough, lowest sale price I've seen

    Chadwicks are back to 7.16 per bag of Axal Pro, great price for Galway City
