Hansgrohe
Excessive Brine Refill / Over-Regeneration
Softener uses excessive salt; brine tank empties quickly and salt consumption is much higher than expected.

Possible Causes
Brine refill time set too high, Incorrect resin volume programmed, Leaking brine valve allowing continuous refill, Control board miscalculation
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No need to open pressurized components for initial checks; keep covers on while adjusting settings.
- Review programming: Check resin volume, hardness, and salt dosage settings. Reduce salt dosage to Hansgrohe-recommended levels for your model.
- Observe refill stage: During regeneration, time the brine refill stage. If it runs longer than specified, adjust the refill time in the installer menu.
- Check for valve leakage: After regeneration, watch the brine tank. If water continues to trickle in, the brine valve is leaking and should be replaced.
- Monitor usage: After adjustments, track salt usage over several weeks to confirm improvement.
