Possible Causes

Hardness set too high, Flow meter misreading high usage, Incorrect capacity setting, Small leak in plumbing causing constant flow

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No need to open the unit for initial checks; adjustments are via the control panel.

  • Check for leaks: With all taps closed, observe the softener's flow display. If it shows flow, locate and repair leaking fixtures.
  • Verify hardness and capacity: Re-test inlet hardness and adjust the programmed hardness and capacity to realistic values.
  • Inspect flow meter: Clean the flow sensor/turbine to prevent false high readings.
  • Adjust reserve capacity: Reduce the reserve setting if it is excessively high for your usage pattern.
