Hi All,
I am new to the forum and I stumbled on the site while doing some research regarding my issue.
I have a well for water supply and recently I have been experiencing an issue. I have a water softener and during its regeneration process I lose all pressure, the guage for the water pressure tank starts dropping from 60psi to 0 within a minute or a minute and a half. Once the water softener completes the regeneration the pressure slowly climbs back up to 60psi.
I have a Grundfos CU301 system for the well pump control and it all seems to be operating normal, per owners manual.
The pressure in the pressure tank is correct as well 38psi, thanks to you guys I was able to figure out and tested it, so I don't think it is the tank. Cut in/out 40/60 psi (not sure why the cut in pressure would not kick in once the guage drops below 40?)
I did a manual regeneration on the water softener and I lose all water through the house. I have to wait for at least 2 hours after regeneration to start using my water again, because if I use it right after the completion of regeneration, even one faucet running, causes the psi to drop to 0.
I thank you all in advance for any assistance. I'd hire a professional but currently I'm unemployed and want to save some money by fixing it myself.
Thanks again!!
