Is It Safe For Hot Water To Flow Through a Water Softener?
I live in an apartment, and I cannot hook a water softener up to the plumbing due to my lease contract (and the way the plumbing is installed).
So I was wondering if I got a water softener and hooked a hose from the shower head that went to the input, and then another hose coming out and hooking to a shower head, would this work? Is it okay for the hot water to go through the water softener?
Thanks so much!

You can run warm water through a regular softener, but hot water will ruin the resin. There is a special hot water resin that you can buy and re-bed your softener, but it is pricey.
Here is an alternative mini softener that you can manually regenerate and it is made for shower applications specifically:
