Problem

 

Possible Cause

 

Solution

 

Control valve uses too 
much brine 

Improper refill settings  

Check refill settings (7.A) 

Improper program settings 

Check program setting to make sure 
they are specific to the water quality 
and application needs 

Control valve regenerates 
frequently 

Check for leaking fixtures that may be 
exhausting capacity or system is 
undersized 

Residual salt is being 
delivered to service 

Low waste pressure 

Check incoming water pressure.  Water 
pressure must remain at minimum of 25 
psi 

Incorrect injector size 

Replace injector with correct size for the 
application 

Restricted drain line 

Check drain line for restriction or debris 
and clean 

Excessive water in brine 
tank 

Improper program settings 

Check refill setting 

Plugged injector 

Remove injector and clean or replace 

Drive cap assembly not 
tightened in properly 

Re-tighten the drive cap assembly 

Damaged seal/stack assembly 

Replace seal/stack 

Restricted or kinked drain line 

Check drain line for restrictions or debris 
and or un-kink drain line 

Plugged backwash flow 
controller 

Remove backwash flow controller and 
clean or replace 

Missing refill flow controller 

Replace refill flow controller 

Control valve  fails to 
draw in brine 
 

Injector is plugged 

Remove injector and clean or replace 

Faulty regenerant piston 

Replace regenerant piston 

Brine line connection leak 

Inspect brine line for air leak 

Drain line restriction or debris 
cause excess back pressure 

Inspect drain line and clean to correct 
restriction 

Drain line too long or too high 

Shorten length or height 

Low water pressure 

Check incoming water pressure.  Water 
pressure must remain at minimum of 25 
psi 

Water running to drain 

Power outage during 
regeneration 

Upon power being restored control will 
finish the remaining regeneration time. 
Reset time of day. If PC board has 
battery back-up present the battery may 
be depleted. See Front Cover and Drive 
Assembly drawing for instructions 

Damage seal/stack assembly 

Replace seal/stack assembly 

Piston assembly failure 

Replace piston assembly 

Drive cap assembly not 
tightened properly 

Re-tighten the drive cap assembly
