With the low cost of new softeners and the fact that most of them are digital so that regeneration is on a demand cycle rather than a timer, thus saving salt and wear and tear on the valving, a new one would be the best investment. Paying to repair the old one could just give you an operating softener that could break again in a short time. : I recently moved into a 24 year old home. Our water is supplied by a well.We have a 10 year old water softener.Whenever we flush a toilet,run the wash machine or the dish washer,or run the shower it sounds like a high pitched horn.The sound seems to be loudest : at the bypass valve on the water softener, and when the : valve is switched to the bypass position the noise stops immediately. Any suggestions?
