AquaSoft
Excessive Regeneration Frequency
Softener regenerates too often, wasting salt and water.

Possible Causes
Hardness set too high, Capacity set too low, Meter miscounting flow, Leaking toilet or fixture causing constant flow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No internal electrical work is required for basic adjustments.
- Check for leaks: Inspect toilets and faucets for continuous running or dripping, which can cause excessive water usage and frequent regenerations.
- Verify hardness and capacity: Compare programmed hardness to actual tested hardness. Reduce hardness setting if it is significantly higher than actual. Increase capacity setting if it is below AquaSoft recommendations for your resin volume.
- Inspect flow meter: Clean the AquaSoft turbine meter and ensure it spins freely. A sticking meter can miscount flow.
- Monitor usage: After adjustments, track regeneration frequency over several days to ensure it matches expected household usage.
