Regeneration Not Initiating
Softener does not start regeneration at the programmed time (no error displayed)

Possible Causes
Incorrect time-of-day, Regeneration inhibited by lockout setting, Power interruptions resetting clock, Meter not registering flow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal work is required for basic checks.
- Check current time: Ensure the controller clock is set correctly and that AM/PM (if used) is correct.
- Review regeneration settings: Confirm the regeneration mode (time or volume), the set regeneration time, and any day-of-week lockouts.
- Check flow registration: Open a tap and verify that the display shows flow or that remaining capacity decreases. If not, inspect the flow meter.
- Power stability: If frequent power cuts occur, consider adding a UPS or surge protector to prevent clock resets.
- Manual test: Initiate a manual regeneration. If it runs correctly, the issue is likely programming-related. If it does not start, suspect a control board or motor fault.
