Air spurts from faucets after softener regenerates

Safety first: Unplug the unit and shut off water if removing lines. Expect some water spillage.

Step-by-step checks:

• 1. Inspect brine line:
  • Check for cracks, loose fittings, or air gaps in the brine line from tank to valve.
  • Replace damaged tubing.
• 2. Venturi housing:
  • Ensure the venturi housing cover is tight and gaskets are in place.
• 3. Drain line routing:
  • Ensure the drain line has a proper air gap and is not allowing siphoning back into the softener.
