Water softener leaks from the brine line connection or brine well.

Safety: No need to shut off main water if leak is confined to brine tank, but unplug power to avoid electrical hazards from standing water.

• Inspect fittings: Tighten the compression nut at the brine line connection on the Pentair valve and at the brine well cap. Do not overtighten plastic parts.
• Check tubing: Examine the brine line for cracks or pinholes. Replace with new Pentair brine tubing if damaged.
• Float assembly: Remove the brine well cover and inspect the float tube for cracks. Replace the Pentair brine float assembly if leaking.
• Salt level: Ensure the brine tank is not overfilled with water. The water level should normally be below the top of the salt bed.
