I understand now and feel a little embarrassed I didn't know how exactly water softeners work.
That sounds like a nice trick to see what's happening. The tank is blue.
I appreciate you explaining this. I'm not sure what this means other then the resin won't expand and take up the other third of the tank. I guess...
That is not what I wanted to hear since you are always right. How much Resin am I going to lose if I use the 1.7? Is it difficult to swap out the...
Bannerman was right it is a vortech tank and uses 30 percent less flow rate. I don't know if this messes up me pushing 33 feet. I miscalculated...
You are right again. It says it has a vortech tank which I saw is an enpress. I don't know what that means but a quick search it says it uses 30...
So since the backwash on mine is only 1.7 which you guys said was low does that mean anything coming out 1.7 or over if I do the test would mean I...
I forgot to mention that the last 15 feet I have on a slight slope down.

Thank you for saving me money. I did run another test and the iron came back below the max recommendation so I'm going to just re-test it again in...
It is very impressive the amount you know. Each time I keep learning cause I keep saying something stupid. My well pressure is 35-55. Hopefully...
The mineral tank is 10x40. Is that 1.7 going to be hard to push far like I need it to?
You seem to be extremely knowledgeable on here. Wondering if you know if I can run that drain line 35 feet and 5 feet up from the softener. Total...
I think my rough plan is to follow through with the sediment filters on both ends. Put a Small RO under the kitchen sink for drinking water and...
