Possible Causes

Hardness set too high, Capacity set too low, Meter misreading flow, Leak in house plumbing causing constant usage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No disassembly required for initial checks.

Step-by-step:

  • Review settings: Compare programmed hardness and capacity with actual water test results and AquaUnique recommendations.
  • Check for leaks: Look for running toilets, dripping faucets, or other continuous water use.
  • Monitor meter: With all water off, check if the flow indicator still shows usage. If so, inspect the flow sensor as in E05/E14.

When to call a technician: If settings and plumbing are correct but over-regeneration continues, the meter or control board may be faulty.
