A successful way to resolve a salt bridge in a brine tank [is to] insert the dowel or pipe into the tank, then gently poke the salt bridge to break it apart. Make sure not to harm the tank or the 软水器 components. After breaking the salt bridge, carefully remove any remaining salt. Checking and stirring the salt regularly can help keep the 软水器 performing optimally.

I had a salt bridge in my brine tank. I used a broom handle to gently break it up, making sure not to damage the tank. Then I added some hot water to speed up the dissolution of the salt.

I first broke the salt bridge by gently tapping the sides of the tank with a rubber mallet. Then, I carefully removed the loose salt, ensuring it did not damage the tank’s interior. We also adjusted the salt usage to prevent future occurrences and regularly checked the tank to catch and resolve any early signs of bridging.

I turned off the water supply going into the 软水器. Then, I carefully used an old curtain rod to remove the hard salt crust from the top of the tank. 一旦盐壳消失了, I used the same tool to break up the rest of the salt at the bottom of the tank to make sure the water flows properly and dissolve the salt like it is supposed to. Then, I filled the tank with fresh salt, being careful not to put in too much.
