Possible Causes

Incorrect hardness set too high, Flow meter misreading high usage, Leaking toilet or fixture causing constant flow, Programming error in capacity or reserve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No special electrical or plumbing hazards for this check, but use caution when adjusting programming.

  • Check for leaks: Inspect toilets, humidifiers, and RO systems for continuous running that could cause high water usage.
  • Verify hardness: Test raw water hardness with a test kit and adjust the Waterguy hardness setting to match actual conditions.
  • Review capacity settings: Ensure the grain capacity and reserve are set per the resin tank size and household usage.
  • Flow meter check: As with E05, clean and verify the flow meter is not stuck or miscounting.

After correcting leaks and settings, clear E20. If regenerations remain abnormally frequent, consult a technician to verify sizing and meter operation.
