The decrease in ion exchange capacity of the
resin
Replace the resin
The resin loss
See problem 14
„Resin loss”
A leak in the central pipe
Check if the central pipe (distribution pipe) is well set, not
cracked, or flattened (due to using hot water in softener)
Resin is exhausted because of too much
water consumption
Softener is too small for such a large water consumption.
Change the softener for a larger one or increase the
frequency of regeneration - for time-controlled mode
Incorrectly set softener performance (water
treatment capacity)
Examine the GH general hardness of water and re-set the
softener performance (use the tab. Softener capacity from
page 5)
7. Water softener
provides hard water
The salt level is the
same in brine tank
(slat level does not
decrease)
Salt has caked, swelled up and is suspended
over the water level in the brine tank
Break down manually caked salt. Prepare a brine solution in
a bucket (about 1.5 kg of salt per 6 liters of hot water and
mix to dissolve in). Pour the brine into the brine tank and
manually start the regeneration. If water after regeneration is
still hard, replace the resin. Refill the salt in the brine tank
after regeneration.
Salt level in the brine tank should always be above the water
level
Improperly connected softener
Check the softener connections. IN
–
raw water inlet, OUT
–
treated water outlet (see picture 2 page 7)
Softener does not start regeneration
See problem 4 & 5 „Regeneration does not start
automatically”
The water meter cable disconnected
Connect the water meter cable to slot (see picture 4 page 18)
The meter does not count the water flow
Clear turbine of the water meter, check the operation of the
water meter, replace the water meter if necessary
The control valve does not fill the brine tank
with water
See problem 12
„The control valve does not fill the brine
tank with water”
Open bypass
Close bypass
Lack of power during regeneration
Provide the electric power supply during regeneration
Lack of water during regeneration or not
enough water during regeneration
Provide water under proper pressure ( 2,0-6,0 bar) during
regeneration
8. Water softener
supplies not
completely softened
water
Amount of salt in the brine tank is too small
Pour salt to the level ¾ of the brine tank (cabinet).
The amount of salt in the brine tank should always be above
the water level.
Water mixer is open
Change the water mixer position (water bypass adjustment
bolt page 7 picture 2)
See problem 6,7
„Water softener provides
Hard water”
See problem 6,7
„Water softener provides Hard water”
9. Excessive salt
consumption
Too much water in the brine tank
Reduce time of filling the water to brine tank, see problem
10 "too much water in the brine tank"
