    Frozen Kinetico, options/questions on "proper" install

    "You can't tell if the tanks are bad by looking. Same for the distributor tubes; one in each tank that you said later has been more or less pounded down into the resin. " That's not what I said, I said I tamped it down. Full of water, the stuff is like quicksand. It took no force whatsoever to...

    Frozen Kinetico, options/questions on "proper" install

    Thanks for the diagram! Any chance you've got it in a larger format? I lose resolution when I expand it. :( Took the system apart. Only issues I could find are the cracked back half of the bypass valve housing which was obvious before, and the cracked bottom housing of what is shown in the...

    Frozen Kinetico, options/questions on "proper" install

    I appreciate the thoughts. I'm not so caught up in the price (however the thought of throwing that much money down the drain in such a short period does still raise my blood pressure), just the fact that I don't KNOW what else is wrong with it.

    Frozen Kinetico, options/questions on "proper" install

    Let's see if these pics work! And the remains: If more detailed shots, or particular components are needed to be seen, let me know. The two tanks positions are obviously reversed from when they were installed. In the first picture, the housing with the lever on it (to select...

    Frozen Kinetico, options/questions on "proper" install

    Hi! First things first, I want to say that I tried searching the forum before posting, but search isn't working for me. So if this has been posted, apologies. This is going to be a long one. I bought a Kinetico system about 6 months ago. Longer story short, the house was vacated for a few...
