AquaHouse Automatic Regeneration Scheduling Failure

AquaHouse softener will not start a regeneration cycle automatically; only manual regeneration works.

Possible Causes

Incorrect time or regeneration mode settings, Disabled auto-regeneration feature, Faulty real-time clock on PCB, Flow meter not registering usage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No plumbing work is needed. Work with dry hands at the control panel.

Step-by-step:

  • 1. Verify time and date: Set the correct time-of-day and day-of-week on the AquaHouse controller.
  • 2. Check regeneration mode: Ensure the unit is set to metered or time-clock mode as desired, and that a regeneration time (e.g., 2:00 AM) is programmed.
  • 3. Confirm hardness and capacity: Incorrect settings can cause the controller to think capacity is never reached. Adjust to match your water and resin size.
  • 4. Test flow meter: Run water and confirm the display shows flow and usage. If not, troubleshoot the AquaHouse flow sensor and cable.
  • 5. Observe for several days: After correcting settings, monitor to see if an automatic regeneration occurs at the scheduled time.
