What is the difference between salt cushions and salt tablets ?
When choosing regeneration salt for a water softener, there is often uncertainty between salt pillows and salt tablets. Both variants are used for water softening and help reduce limescale buildup, but they differ in shape, solubility, and ease of use.
Salt cushions (like Hydrosoft)
Salt cushions are compressed salt tablets with a rounded, cushion-like shape. This shape ensures that they dissolve slowly and very evenly in the salt reservoir.
Features of salt pillows:
- Rounded, shape-retaining structure
- Very uniform solution
- Constant brine formation
- Less chance of salt bridges
- Clean and dust-free in use
Salt pillows are ideal for those who want maximum stability and a low-maintenance operation of the water softener.
Salt tablets (classical form)
Salt tablets are cylindrical or disc-shaped and are also pressed from regeneration salt. They dissolve in a controlled manner and are widely used in standard household water softeners.
Characteristics of salt tablets:
- Compact, vast form
- Even but slightly slower solution
- Reliable regeneration
- Versatile
- Very user-friendly
Salt tablets are an excellent choice for daily use and consistent water softening.
Key difference in practice
The difference lies mainly in shape and solubility behavior:
- Salt cushions provide extra stability thanks to their rounded shape
- Salt tablets are slightly more compact and traditional
In both cases, it applies: the water softening is efficient, as long as the salt is suitable for your device.
