    Why is there excessive water in the brine tank of my AQUATROL Control Unit?
    • R
      Ricky BeltranSep 10, 2025
      Excessive water in the brine tank of your AQUATROL Control Unit can be caused by a plugged drain line flow control (clean the flow control), a plugged injector system (clean the injector and screen), the timer not cycling (replace the timer), foreign material in the brine valve (replace the brine valve seat and clean the valve), or foreign material in the brine line flow control (clean the brine line flow control).

    Why is my AQUATROL POWERFLO softener failing to brine draw?
    • Y
      yolanda01Aug 23, 2025
      If your AQUATROL Control Unit softener isn't drawing brine, several issues could be the cause. Check for a plugged drain line and clean the flow control. A plugged injector could also be the problem, so clean or replace the injector and screen. Ensure there's water in the brine tank and check for restrictions in the B.L.FC, making sure the safety float isn't stuck. Low water pressure can also prevent brine draw, so increase water pressure. Additionally, check the brine line for air leaks, and inspect the seal, spacer, and piston for scratches and dents, as an internal control leak could be the cause.

      adam57Aug 25, 2025
      To fix a loss of water pressure in your AQUATROL Control Unit, start by checking for fouling of the inlet pipe and clean or replace the pipeline if necessary. Also, inspect the resin for fouling and clean it, pretreating to prevent future issues. Lastly, ensure proper backwash by resetting the flow rate and time of backwash to address too many resin fines.

    • N
      Natasha GardnerAug 29, 2025
      If your AQUATROL Control Unit is regenerating at the wrong time, it's likely due to the timer being improperly set, possibly due to a power failure. Reset the timer to resolve this issue.

    Why is my AQUATROL Control Unit losing mineral through the drain line?
    • P
      penny56Sep 18, 2025
      Loss of mineral through the drain line in your AQUATROL Control Unit can be caused by air in the water system. Ensure that the well system has a proper air eliminator control and check for dry well conditions. It can also be due to an improper size drain line flow control; check for the proper drain rate.

    Why is there iron in the conditioned water from my AQUATROL Control Unit?
    • S
      Steven EllisSep 22, 2025
      Iron in the conditioned water from your AQUATROL Control Unit is likely due to a fouled mineral bed. Check the backwash, brine draw, and brine tank fill. Increase the frequency of regeneration and the backwash time.

    • M
      Matthew RussellSep 8, 2025
      If your AQUATROL Control Unit fails to regenerate, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check that the unit has permanent electrical service by checking the fuse, plug, pull chain, or switch. Second, the timer might be defective and need replacing. Third, a power failure may have occurred, so reset the time of day.
