On 2020-02-16 2 by (mod) - too much water or brine in the salt tank

Zi

Regarding: is there too much water or brine in the salt tank after a water softener regen cycle?

It may be perfectly normal to see water (or "brine") in the salt tank of your water softener, depending on

- the required salt dose for each regen cycle and thus how much water is pumped back into the brine tank at the end of a regen cycle, so that brine will be ready for the next regeneration cycle

and

- the level of salt in the brine tank; when salt is at lower levels, say half or less of the brine tank volume, then it's more - common to see water or brine above the salt.

See the diagnostic and repair procedures at BRINE TANK DIAGNOSIS & REPAIR

On 2019-04-01 by (mod) - where to buy plastic elbow for water softener or brine tank

Go to

- a plumbing supplier - or local water softener supplier as often these parts are standard across brands and models

or

- identify the equipment (water softener brand and model) then look in the IO Manual for your softener (you can download free manuals here at Inspectapedia.com too) and get the exact part number from the manual's parts explosion and you can order that from the manufacturer

Mary in our list of WATER SOFTENER MANUALS starting at https://inspectapedia.com/plumbing/Water_Softener_Manuals.php

find the brand and model of your water softener and down load the free manual for your unit.

I have to offer that advice because clock and timer setting procedures vary considerably depending on the water softener brand and model, ranging from twisting a mechanical dial to programming an electronic display.

I have a control identical to the one on the cover of your web page. Are the pins to be in for activation or out

Thanks for asking, Ron.

The bypass valve on a water softener takes the device out of service.

In NORMAL or IN USE mode building water passes through the water softener and is treated or softened - thst is, calcium and magnesium ate removed from the water.

In BYPASS mode buildong water bypasses the water softener - it does not go through th e water softener and so is not treated.

During oeriodic water softener regeneration the softener does temporarily into bypass mode automatically.

You can also manually put the softener into bypass mode. You might do this temporarily, for example during repairs.

You can read about using the bypass valve in any water softener manual such as those given in the article above.

What is the bypass valve for

Naomi,
WATER SOFTENER IDENTIFICATION at https://inspectapedia.com/plumbing/Water-Softener-Identification.php

might help you identify the brand of your water softener.

If you're still stuck, use the picture frame icon next to the Comment button to post photos of the whole water softener and closeups of its control head and any labels and we may be able to research further.

Often water softeners are sold under local brands but produced by just one of a small number of manufacturers, so a more generic control manual may suffice.

In the article above on this page read the section titled

Un-Branded or Generic Water Softener Controls & Manuals
