My PCM5 control module is malfunctioning and runs continuously on my iron removal system and severely over-dosed the water. This is a intermittent problem that seems to happen after the backwash cycle of my iron filter.
My guess is that a component overheats during the continuous backwash and eventually cools down and operates normally.
During the malfunction it's injecting bleach continuously until it cools down(?) or sucks the solution tank dry, which obviously makes for some pretty nasty water(after cutting the sample 8 times it tested 45ppm).
Supposedly Filox is tolerant to sodium hypochlorite(bleach) so I'm hoping the media didn't get ruined. It did wreck a load of clothes in the washer and my very unhappy girlfriend has some interesting highlights in her hair.
I'm posting this so others are aware this can happen and am wondering if any one else has run into this problem.When I contacted Stenner, they could've cared less, simply told me my module was out of warranty. I suppose if my girlfriend would've been blinded in the shower and a lawyer was contacting them they might have been a little more interested.
Bad water sucks, Muff
