Hydraulic Vibration During High Flow
Softener causes noticeable vibration in nearby pipes and walls during backwash

Possible Causes
High backwash flow rate, Inadequate pipe supports, Flexible hoses resonating, Partially closed valves causing turbulence
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Ensure all valves are accessible and not leaking before adjustment.
- Check valve positions: Confirm all isolation valves are fully open to minimize turbulence.
- Secure pipework: Add or tighten pipe clips near the Ecowater softener and along vibrating sections.
- Use flexible connectors: Install high-quality flexible hoses between the softener and rigid pipework to absorb vibration.
- Consult Ecowater settings: On some models, backwash flow can be adjusted via flow controls; ensure they match the resin tank size.
