How to fix a Fleck Control Unit when the softener fails to regenerate?
- A
  Anna MannAug 17, 2025
  If your Fleck Control Unit softener isn't regenerating, it could be due to several reasons. First, check for any interrupted power supply by restoring electrics (mains, fuse). A defective power head might be the cause, requiring a replacement. Inspect the meter cable connections on the time rand and meter cover. A blocked meter may also prevent regeneration; clean or replace it. If the motor is defective, consider changing it. Lastly, ensure the programming is correct and modify it if necessary.

Why is my Fleck 6600 using excessive salt?
- W
  whernandezAug 23, 2025
  Excessive salt consumption in your Fleck Control Unit could stem from a few issues. Check the brine refill setting and salt usage. Too much water in the brine tank can also cause this issue. Also, verify the programming and modify if necessary.

What to do if there is too much water in the Fleck 6600 Control Unit brine tank?
- G
  gonzalesdesireeAug 26, 2025
  If there's too much water in your Fleck Control Unit brine tank, it could be due to a plugged drain line flow control (DLFC), a faulty brine valve, or wrong programming. Check the flow regulator, change the brine valve, and verify the programming, modifying it if necessary.

How to stop constant leakage to the drain from my Fleck 6600?
- J
  Jose PotterAug 28, 2025
  Constant leakage to the drain in your Fleck Control Unit can be caused by several factors. Foreign elements in the valve could be the culprit; clean the valve and check it in different regeneration positions. An internal valve leak might also be the cause, requiring you to change the seals & spacers and/or piston assembly. The valve might be blocked in brine refill or backwash, also requiring you to change the seals & spacers and/or piston assembly. A defective or blocked timer motor could be responsible; change the motor and check the gear teeth. Lastly, the powerhead might not be operating properly, necessitating a change.

Why is there salted water in the service line of my Fleck Control Unit?
- J
  James MurrayAug 31, 2025
  Salted water in the service line of your Fleck Control Unit may be due to several reasons. The filter and injector might be blocked, requiring cleaning. The power head may not be operating proper cycles and require replacement. Foreign elements in the brine valve or in the brine line flow control (BLFC) can also cause this; clean the BLFC and change the brine valve seat. Low water pressure could be a factor; raise the inlet pressure to 1,8 bar minimum. Finally, incorrect programming might be the cause; check and modify if necessary.

What causes no brine draw in my Fleck 6600?
- H
  hortonmelissaSep 2, 2025
  If your Fleck Control Unit isn't drawing brine, it could be due to a plugged drain line flow control (DLFC), so clean it. The filter and injectors might be plugged; clean or change them if necessary. Low water pressure can also cause this issue; increase the inlet pressure to 1,8 bar minimum. An internal valve leak may be the problem; change the seals, spacers and/or piston assembly. Incorrect programming could be the cause; check and modify if necessary. Lastly, the power head might not be operating properly, requiring a replacement.

Why is there a water pressure drop in my Fleck 6600?
- D
  david88Sep 5, 2025
  A water pressure drop in your Fleck Control Unit could be due to iron deposits in the softener inlet or within the softener itself. Clean the inlet, valve, and resin. Another cause might be the valve inlet being obstructed by foreign elements; remove the piston and clean the valve.

Why does my Fleck Control Unit valve regenerate constantly?
- T
  Theodore NguyenSep 8, 2025
  If your Fleck Control Unit valve is constantly regenerating, it could be due to a faulty power head (change it), a faulty microswitch or wiring loom (change them), or a defective or badly set cycle cam (reposition or change it).

Why am I losing resin through the drain line of my Fleck 6600?
- A
  Angela JohnsonSep 12, 2025
  Loss of resin through the drain line in your Fleck Control Unit could be due to a missing or broken top distributor; add or replace it. Air in the water system might also cause this; ensure the presence of an air check system in the brine tank. Additionally, the drain line flow control might be the wrong size; ensure it is sized correctly.

What causes iron presence in my Fleck 6600 Control Unit softener?
- S
  Sharon LewisSep 14, 2025
  Iron presence in your Fleck Control Unit softener could be due to a dirty resin bed. Check backwash, brine draw and brine refill. Regenerate more often and increase backwash cycle time.
