Possible Causes

Stuck brine refill valve, Blocked brine line preventing draw, Faulty brine safety float not shutting off, Incorrect brine refill time setting

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Place the softener in bypass and unplug it. Use caution when bailing out water from the brine tank.

  • Remove excess water: Use a small pump or container to remove water until the level is just above the salt grid or a few inches from the bottom.
  • Check float assembly: Ensure the brine safety float moves freely and shuts off water when lifted. Clean or replace if stuck.
  • Inspect brine line: Confirm the brine line is not blocked or kinked, which can prevent proper draw and leave water behind.
  • Review settings: Verify the brine refill time or salt setting is correct for your Aqua Dial model.
  • Test regeneration: After corrections, run a manual regeneration and observe the brine draw and refill stages.
