Softener frequently runs out of soft water before the next scheduled regeneration.

Safety: No special safety concerns for programming changes.

Steps:

• Re-test hardness: Use a test kit to confirm actual hardness and update the AquaClean settings.
• Adjust capacity: Reduce the programmed capacity or increase regeneration frequency to match usage.
• Check meter: Verify the flow meter is counting correctly by comparing displayed usage to actual water use.
• Resin cleaning: Use a resin cleaner if iron or scale fouling is suspected.

If soft water demand consistently exceeds system capacity, consider upgrading to a larger AquaClean softener.
