Possible Causes

Time-of-day not set correctly, AM/PM confusion, Time zone or daylight savings not adjusted, Power interruptions without backup

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal work is required.

Step-by-step:

  • Set correct time: Enter the AquaUnique time setting mode and adjust to the correct local time, ensuring AM/PM is correct.
  • Check regen time: Verify the regeneration start time is set for a low-usage period (e.g., 2:00 AM).
  • Backup power: If frequent outages occur, consider a small UPS for the softener to maintain time settings.

When to call a technician: If the clock drifts significantly or will not hold time, the control board may need replacement.
