Problem solving
If you are experiencing poor water flow, please check all plumbing first, as it is extremely rare for a softener to cause flow rate problems.
Save money by ensuring an engineer is not called out unnecessarily. However, if the solution to the problem is not successful,
please call for service and advise us what you have tried. Call our Direct Service Line on: 0870 429 9019.
