Why does the valve on my Pentair Water Filtration System regenerate constantly?
If the valve of your Pentair Water Filtration System regenerates constantly, the power head might be faulty. Try changing the power head. Alternatively, the micro-switches or wiring loom could be faulty; in this case, change the micro-switches or wiring loom. Also, the cycle cam might be defective or badly set; reposition or change the cycle cam to resolve this.
Why is my Pentair Water Filtration System constantly leaking to the drain?
If your Pentair Water Filtration System is constantly leaking to the drain, there might be foreign elements in the valve. Clean the valve and check it in the different regeneration positions. An internal valve leak could also be the cause; in this case, change the seals, spacers, and/or piston assembly. If the valve is blocked in brine refill or backwash, you should also change the seals, spacers, and/or piston assembly. A defective or blocked controller motor can also lead to this issue; replace the motor and check the gear teeth. Finally, a power head that isn't operating properly might be the reason; replace the power head.
What to do if my Pentair Water Filtration System has no brine draw?
If your Pentair Water Filtration System isn't drawing brine, start by checking the drain line flow control (DLFC) for any blockages and clean it if necessary. Also, inspect the injectors and filter for clogs; clean or replace them as needed. Low water pressure could also be the issue; make sure to raise the inlet pressure to at least 1.8 bar. An internal valve leak might be the cause, so consider changing the seals, spacers, and/or piston assembly. Incorrect programming can also lead to this problem, so verify and adjust the programming. Finally, a malfunctioning power head could be the reason, requiring replacement.
Why is my Pentair Water Filtration System losing resin through the drain line?
If your Pentair Water Filtration System is losing resin through the drain line, the top distributor might be missing or broken. In this case, add or replace the top distributor. Air in the water system could also be the cause; 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 correctly sized. Finally, a dirty resin bed can contribute to this issue; check the backwash, brine draw, and brine refill, regenerate more often, and increase the backwash cycle time.
Why is there salted water in the service line of my Pentair Water Filtration System?
If you're experiencing salted water in the service line of your Pentair Water Filtration System, several factors could be responsible. The filter and injector might be blocked, requiring cleaning. Additionally, the power head may not be operating on the proper cycles, necessitating replacement. Foreign elements in the brine valve or brine line (BLFC) can also cause this issue; clean or replace the valve and clean the BLFC. Low water pressure could also be a factor; raise the inlet pressure to a minimum of 1.8 bar. Finally, incorrect programming can lead to this problem, so check and adjust the programming as needed.
Why is there a water pressure drop in my Pentair Water Filtration System?
A drop in water pressure in your Pentair Water Filtration System can be caused by a few things. Check for iron deposits in the softener inlet and clean it if necessary. Also, iron deposits inside the softener itself can cause this issue; clean both the valve and the resin. Lastly, the valve inlet might be obstructed by foreign elements; remove the piston and clean the valve to resolve this.
What to do if there is too much water in the brine tank of my Pentair Water Filtration System?
If there's too much water in the brine tank of your Pentair Water Filtration System, the drain line flow control (DLFC) might be plugged. Try checking the flow regulator. Alternatively, the brine valve could be faulty, requiring a replacement. Also, ensure that the system is correctly programmed; check and modify the programming if needed.
Why is my Pentair Water Filtration System using excessive salt?
If your Pentair Water Filtration System is using too much salt, start by checking the brine refill setting. Make sure the salt setting of the brine tank is correct. Note that too much water in the brine tank may also be the cause. You may need to see Iron presence in softener. Finally, verify the system's programming and adjust if necessary.
