Possible Causes
Hardness set too low, Capacity set too high, Very low water usage, Demand-initiated regeneration not triggering
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Verify water quality regularly when adjusting regeneration frequency.
- Test hardness: Confirm outlet water is consistently soft with a test kit.
- Adjust settings: If regenerations are extremely infrequent, slightly increase the programmed hardness or reduce capacity to ensure periodic regeneration and resin cleaning.
- Check meter function: Ensure the flow meter is counting usage correctly; if not, see flow sensor troubleshooting.
