Any recommendations for a good brand of shower head (and valve) that is particularly resistant to corrosion and salt in water? My boss has extremely hard water and needs to find a head that'll last longer than his Price Pfister.
The cartridges are plastic with rubber seals...they aren't exactly the most solid things around, but in an area I used to work that was all we'd install because of the water.
Where in what he said do you see that his boss has a softener? I can't find that in my copy.
Salt in the water doesn't mean he has a softener, he could have high chlorides or sodium, both are found in natural waters or salt water intrusion into ground water recovering his well.
Hey sorry about that Shawn, I should reread things better.
He may have the time set wrong on the softener. He may have a water leak or use during regeneration too. He should check out the softener for proper operation or call for service.

Also, forgot to add...replacing the cartridges is extremely easy (a caveman could do it).
One clip holds the stem into place, even if it gets crammed with deposits frequently, it's a quick task to replace. philips screwdriver for the trim and a pair of channel locks for the clip.
