Possible Causes
Salt dose set too high, Regeneration frequency too high, Brine valve leaking, Incorrect resin volume programmed
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Ensure brine tank is stable and not overfilled when adjusting settings.
- Review programming: Check hardness, capacity, and salt dose settings. Adjust to Ecowater recommendations for your model and water conditions.
- Check regeneration count: Review how often the unit regenerates. Frequent regenerations may indicate a leak or mis-set hardness.
- Inspect brine valve: Ensure the brine valve closes fully and does not allow continuous brine refill.
- Correct resin volume: Confirm the programmed resin volume matches the actual tank size; an incorrect value can cause over-salting.
