    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Opening her up. The resin level should be at 2/3 of tank correct? It is at about 60% now. Update: Nothing I can do after taking her apart. The resin is at about 60% in the tank which is about right level since space is needed for resin expansion. I could not replace the leaking o ring due to...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    The label indicate the injector is #0 red which is the proper size for 12" tank, but why a 2.4GPM DLFC for 12X52 tank? I guess I'll have to wait unit the resin and other parts arrived, then open her up to find out. This is the part I don't understand. I pay for all the services and still cannot...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Thank you! I did find some videos on how to service the Fleck 7000. While I watch all these videos, I found another question, what color of injector should I use? Does injector size matter? Looks like there is 3 different colors indicate different size of injector. I am just hoping to get all...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Hi, I’ll be working on my Fleck 7000 64k unit. I recall you mention about the 2.4GPM DLFC been too small. Should I replace with the correct size Button to 3.0GPM or larger? Thanks

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    I believe I do have to order a bag of resin. People been talking about 10% crosslink resin, but I can only find Purolite which I believe it is only 8% crosslink. Any suggest place to order the resin?

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Thanks for the inputs guys, you guys are great. To be honest, I am running out of soft water before the regeneration + water not soft enough (BF set at 28). I am basing on the memory as I recall the service guy only replace with one bag of resin, that's why I start this thread. As I look up and...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Go it. It is different way to setting up the reserve capacity. Your recommend setting seems to use less salt per regeneration but more frequently to ensure water stays soft.

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    I am base on what local water company report average of 20 grains of hardness since it was on some well water. I set at 25 just to be sure I do t run off of soft water since I hardly have the same experience of soft water since day 1 compare with my old GE water softener. To be honest I wasn’t...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    I just check the text message with the service guy. I’m sure he know the tank is 12x52 will need 2 cuft of resin. Now I’m a little confuse why only one bag add to the system… I’m not kind of guy stay and watch people doing their work…. If he does put 2 bag of resin, then why the water will not...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Thank you. I’m not sure if there are any gravel for bedding when new. Are gravel came with the system? I only recall the service guy dump out old resin and add one bag of resin. I wasn’t there the whole time to see all the details, but I know he only add 1 bag of resin. I understand it is...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Are you suggest I should just replace a new system better than trying to making it work? I’m actually prefer to get a new system and be sure I find a right installer to do the job. Just not sure what to get yet. I can add another of bag of resin to the tank, but not knowing if it will address...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Hi, Yes, it has 0.25GPM BLFC. I just set the BF from 28 to 32 and see if I get softer water all the way before regeneration. I’ll monitor see how long the water will stay soft before it need another cycle. I set the softener capacity at 48k as suggested. If base on 48k setting, it should be at...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Hi, The old resin were breaking up in smaller pieces and I have no idea why. I’m surprise why such a short life cycle. My old GE softener last 13 years. Perhaps bad quality resin used? Regardless of salt setting the water is no longer soft my setting on Fleck 7000 were 28 BF, that should...

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    He empty out the resin. Black tank 12x52. It doesn’t make any sense if you replace 1/2 of the old resin if you know what I meant. I have no idea why perhaps increase profit on the cost of resin. That’s why I’m not risk another replace job from same guy. It is just a regular softener.

    Fleck 7000 64k unit replacing resin

    Hi guys, I am back since 2013. I have the Fleck 7000 64k unit installed with your help. In 2021, I ask the same guy install the system for me to help me replace the resin on this 64k unit. He did, but he only replace with one bag (1CuFt) of Purolite resin. I have always set the system with 48k...
