According to what I have heard.. Water softeners should not be used to water for your tank.. Your not even supposed to drink it.. Normally the softener is hooked into the hot water line anyways.. You are also not supposed to use hotwater for Drinking/Cooking as hotwater will leech metals from your hotwater tank/copper pipes
Unless its a Sodium free Water softener that uses resins, this may be a different story as well..
I saw the latter in a recent Utility bill, there was a info booklet with that info in it.
With the relative cost of RO or RO/DI its best to go that would.
