Possible Causes

Partially blocked injector, Air leak in brine line, Stuck brine float, Low water level in brine tank

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate the softener and relieve pressure before working on the brine system.

  • Observe brine level: During a manual regeneration, mark the brine level in the tank. After the brine draw stage, check if the level has dropped. If not, proceed with checks.
  • Clean injector: Remove and clean the brine injector / venturi as described earlier, ensuring all small orifices are clear.
  • Check brine line and fittings: Inspect the brine hose for kinks and ensure all connections are airtight. Replace any cracked fittings.
  • Test float assembly: Ensure the brine float moves freely and is not stuck in the closed position. Clean or replace if necessary.

Warning: Do not overfill the brine tank with water manually; this can cause overflow and dilute brine strength.
