    What to do if the Check Salt Light is on for Aerus Water Dispenser?
    • R
      Robert RyanAug 21, 2025
      If the Check Salt Light is displayed on the valve control, or the brine tank empty icon appears on the remote monitor of your Aerus Water Dispenser, it indicates no regenerant draw or insufficient regenerant was detected during regeneration. Ensure salt/regenerant is available, check for regenerant draw, and inspect the regenerant line for leaks.
