I just did 3 tests right before a regen cycle. Incoming water tested 425ppm (25 gpg) Cold soft water tested 0-25ppm (2 gpg) Hot soft water tested 0-25ppm (2 gpg) Regardless of this, the water spots my shower door and makes it hard to brush long hair. Its been like this for awhile, but i did...

I have a Kinetico water softener and it regenerates fine and goes through salt like it should, but my water isn't very soft. I've had the Kinetico dealer check the softener and all seems like it working fine. He also did a hard water test and it tested soft. I can tell a difference in my...

My mistake, its a "Reliance" I can get a generic control valve for around $90, and msrp is like $150. The damn thing is in decent shape other than this valve so Im stumped as to what to do. I really don't have the extra $ right now to replace the whole unit, although I would install it myself.

Also, during the brine/rinse cycle, if I held my finger over the end of the hose I could hear what sounded like a leak by the control valve...

After further looking it seems to be hooked up correctly. However, I did two manual regenerations and the brine tank never did empty out. Shouldn't that water be drawn into the tanks to rinse the resin out or am I mistaken on how this thing works?

Ive lived in this house for 10 years and I've never had REAL soft water. I could always tell a difference if I ran out of salt it would get harder as time went by, but it was never as soft as my last house's water. Today I just happened to notice the house's main line T's off to a filter and...
