I am looking for some assistance in making sure my water softener is programmed correctly - I suspect it is not. Something has changed recently, I am determining this by the main 'default' display of the screen. In the past it used to show the time alternated by a remaining capacity number... but now it shows the time and then 'RC ----'. I assume this means it doesn't have any reserve capacity and may not even be functioning as needed.
I know VERY LITTLE about water softeners, regen cycles, etc etc. so forgive basic questions.
I have a 4 person household, 2 adults, 2 teenagers.
This system was originally bought in 2008 and was installed by DuPure. It has since been relocated to a new house and has been working ok (as far as I know) until recently... I suspect a power outage may have caused the programming to be messed up.
On the back of my control unit there is a sticker that shows the following information:
BLFC: .250 GPM
DLFC: - GPM
Injector: 0
I have a pentair square brine tank 14"x34"
The inlet and outlet are 1" PVC
Here are the settings that are currently programmed:
VT: St2b
CT: Fd
NT: 1
TS: U1
C: 64,000
H: 40 (this is a best guess effort based on a DIY hardness kit - on well water just north of Houston TX)
RS: SF
SF: 20
DO: Off
RT: 2:00
BD: 80
BF: 32
1st BW: 8
2nd BW: 5
RR: 5
FM: t1.0
Any insight / suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
