Hi everyone. I just bought my first home and I'm having some trouble with the water softener. The water out of my faucets is very salty tasting. I also noticed when washing my car that the water is leaving a whiteish residue as it dries on the car from the sun.
I have the Autotrol 460i. The hardness is currently set at 10 (not sure if this setting is correct, I don't know the hardness of the water and will need to test). The capacity is set at 48. The time is set correctly. I set the calendar override to 5 days, it was set at 0.
Last night I tried to take out of the injector and screen, but the injector was giving me some trouble getting it out so I left it. I ordered a new injector and screen just in case. I also cleaned the drain tube, but didn't notice anything weird coming out of it, seemed fairly clean.
After I did all of this, the softener regenerated. Then over the next 3 hours, it regenerated 2 more times. I would assume this has something to do with my salty tasting water.
Can anyone help? I attached 2 pictures.
