N2Futur 0 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Does anyone know where to purchase water softener salt? We're down to our last 40lb bag of Morton's (which we brought down from NOB)... apparently not available in Melaque... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fred Habacht 493 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Contact TIO BOB. He has a sup0ply store in Ajijic and his prices for salt was always considered very fair . You also reach him on TOB as he doesn't post here much. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
El Saltos 587 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 I don't think H2Ole' services Melaque! You'll likely have to go to Manzanillo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Shrall 283 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 In Guayabitos I find salt at a store that sells pool supplies. It normally won't be the big pellets in the yellow bag but the Mexican brand more resembling rock salt works just fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bmh 2,140 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 any pool place has salt for water softener or can get it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sea 237 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Yes. As people have said, the cheapest salt can be used for water softener. There are special types that are more expensive, but the extra expense is unnecessary. Available at pool maintenance and supply places. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lcscats 395 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Pool Stuff in Ajijic on north side of carraterra around Telmex area. They have pellets and rock salt. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sea 237 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 The OP lives in Melaque. Lakeside locations probably aren't helpful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
N2Futur 0 Posted December 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 We don't mind a trip up to Ajijic (it's still very hot down here!). Thank you for all your responses! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lcscats 395 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 FYI I find the pellets don't clump up in my storage box as easily as the rock salt. This may not effect anyone else. Try the rock salt and see if it works well in your storage box if not use pellets right? Do others have problems with the rock salt clumping up in storage box? Also title was water softener salt so even if the person is at the coast others reading this locally will get good info on locations to buy salt so the posts were appropriate in my opinion. I thought about it before I posted what I posted Sea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
