Do any of the RV units allow use of Potassium Chloride like my home softener?
As far as I could find out, they all do.
But, try to find potassium chloride in water softener crystal, or poundage sizes.
Either the crystals are too large to put in through the top, or you have to buy humungous amounts. Fine if you just RV for a few weeks at a time, but if you full time - not good.

Thanks Sheff!
If you're staying somewhere close to a town, I'd say it's worth calling a company who sells/installs the higher quality home softeners to see if they can sell you a reasonable quantity of the correct texture.
The one dsadvantage I've found with KCL for my home unit is some brands are truly "dirty" compared to others (my nearly empty tank looks almost muddy). Where traditional salt is much more pure.
