When recharging ... Does this unit bypass/shut off the supply to the house or does it inject salt/brine into the drinking water?

The salt water/brine solution is strictly used to wash clean the resin beads inside the softener. The solution residue is then rinsed off the beads during the final stages of the regeneration process. Your drinking water/house supply then passes through the resin bed without a trace of salt/brine in it.

I have very hard well water and currently use 200 lbs of salt per month to have reasonably good water. Will this system use less salt?

If your existing system is the old type with a timer, then this system which has a flow meter rather than the timer should use less salt

I have a household with 2 adults and 4 kids. Our hardness is 50gpg, with 2ppm of iron. what system, if not this, might we need?

This unit works fine for my family of (4) adults and (1) child. It really depends on the amount of water you use, but I do not think you would have any problems with this unit

Unit was in stock when purchased, and now 6 days later, says out of stock pending shipment. What’s the deal?

If you are purchasing from seller Amazon, they have plenty in stock. If you are purchasing from one of the other third party sellers, it can vary. Usually if out of stock, it is only for a couple days.
