Softener uses excessive salt and regenerates too frequently

Safety: No special electrical safety beyond normal precautions.

• Check for leaks: Ensure no toilets or fixtures are running continuously, which can cause constant flow and frequent regenerations.
• Verify hardness: Test your raw water hardness and adjust the control setting to match, adding only a small safety margin.
• Adjust capacity: Increase the programmed capacity if it is set too low for your resin volume and household usage.
• Check BLFC size: Confirm that the brine line flow control matches AFWFilters specifications for your model. An oversized BLFC can overfill the brine tank and waste salt.
