Lindsay
Over-Regeneration / Meter Miscount
Softener regenerates too often, even with low water usage
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Incorrect hardness setting too high, Flow meter double-counting pulses, Programming set to very small capacity, Internal leak causing phantom usage
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No internal electrical work with power connected.
- Review settings: Confirm hardness and capacity are set correctly per Lindsay manual and water test.
- Check for leaks: Inspect for constant drain flow or internal leaks that could cause the meter to register flow.
- Test meter: Compare displayed usage to actual meter readings on the house. If the Lindsay meter overcounts, replace the flow meter assembly.
