Soft water also extends the lifetime of plumbing by reducing or eliminating scale build-up in pipes

Dishwasher salt is a particular grade of granulated, crystalline sodium chloride intended for regenerating the water softener circuit of household or industrial dishwashers. Analogous to water softener salt, dishwasher salt regenerates ion exchange resins , expelling the therein trapped calcium and magnesium ions that characterize hard water .
In 1986, Mt. Olive Pickle co-founded the North Carolina Pickle Festival. [7] In 2005, the Mt. Olive plant had expanded to take up more than 970,000 square feet (90,000 m 2) of production space covering 110 acres (0.4 km 2). [2] In 2008, the company introduced the first single-pack pickles.
