Calgon water softener for sensors

Calgon Post, 20 Mule Team Borax is supposed to be the same as Calgon.

You can get Calgon Powder on Amazon.

With the powder you need to dissolve it in water before pouring it into the tank(s). Just make sure it is dissolved. Both work fine, the liquid is just easier to deal with.

Liquid and powder, Samey-same. Likewise any water conditioning powder. The point is to help the detergent to work more efficiently and prevent the buildup of lime scale on the sensors.

Seems the powder is not readily available in parts of the country. I was lucky to find several large boxes for about 80% off a few years back when a store in Deadwood was going out of business. Still working with that stash.

No difference except price. We buy the powder (surprisingly) at our farm store. Might try that.

I'm going to talk to our Walmart and see if they can order it when they order the liquid.

Sometimes a grocery store will order a case, if you'll buy the entire case. Just a thought.

I have been using the liquid Calgon. There is no difference from the powder. I have never seen the powder, just the liquid.

After using the GEO method for a year, it has made no difference from just using the usual chemical tank treatments. The black tank sensors still don't work and as most will say - none of the standard in-tank sensors do.

I suspected as much.

Not sure what you are doing wrong, but it fixed mine after many, many years of not working and they continue to work today. :h

Just ordered Rain Drops brand (powder)from amazon, way cheaper then calgon, only complaint was it has a perfume smell, who cares right?
