Also, I'm curious how you came to the conclusion that water changes are bad for your septic system...

I've thought about this myself, and I'm not sure either way. I know they've done studies and the consensus is that softeners dumping into the septic system don't cause any issues. My water softener adds quite a bit of salt to the septic system, like 80 pounds every month...
