Softener regenerates at the wrong time of day (e.g., during peak water use)

Possible Causes

Time-of-day set incorrectly, AM/PM confusion, Power loss without reset, Misprogrammed regeneration time

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No plumbing work required.

  • Set correct time: Adjust the time-of-day on the Culligan control to match actual local time, paying attention to AM/PM if applicable.
  • Check regen time: In programming, set the regeneration time to an off-peak hour (commonly 2:00 AM).
  • Verify backup: If time is frequently lost after short outages, the control board backup circuit may be weak and the board may need replacement.
