I did replace my old water softener resin and works great. Somehow it also introduce slow leak issues which simple washer replace solve the issue. While disconnect and reconnect the water softener, a slow leak start between and unit valve head and media tank. I was careless over tighten the...

Problem solved. I cut a small piece off and reconnect. It took about 45min to finish brine draw because there a lot of water in it. I’m wonder if Clark WS1 valve has similar function key as Fleck 7000 I can hit the key and it pass to next step in cycle?

That’s a great idea, let me search the proper size clips

I cut off small piece of tube and reconnect. Hopefully the quick connect isn’t seal properly before I call the water softener company. It is not suppose to be air bobble inside the tube while drawing brine and no air bobble during refill. I’ll regenerate one more time later tonight

One question. I have set salt with 16lbs setting for 2ft3 system. I understand the brine draw time is set default at 60mins. The question is how much time does it take to empty out the brine tank? My old Fleck 7000 doesn’t take whole 60 min Somehow I see weak brine draw through the tube. Lots...

Thank you very much for the helpful information

Which model of Clack did you get? How do you like it?

Opening her up. The resin level should be at 2/3 of tank correct? It is at about 60% now. Update: Nothing I can do after taking her apart. The resin is at about 60% in the tank which is about right level since space is needed for resin expansion. I could not replace the leaking o ring due to...

Confirmed. It is a red #0 injector with correct 3.5GPM DLFC. Seller did provided correct sizing.

The label indicate the injector is #0 red which is the proper size for 12" tank, but why a 2.4GPM DLFC for 12X52 tank? I guess I'll have to wait unit the resin and other parts arrived, then open her up to find out. This is the part I don't understand. I pay for all the services and still cannot...

Thank you! I did find some videos on how to service the Fleck 7000. While I watch all these videos, I found another question, what color of injector should I use? Does injector size matter? Looks like there is 3 different colors indicate different size of injector. I am just hoping to get all...

Hi, I’ll be working on my Fleck 7000 64k unit. I recall you mention about the 2.4GPM DLFC been too small. Should I replace with the correct size Button to 3.0GPM or larger? Thanks

I believe I do have to order a bag of resin. People been talking about 10% crosslink resin, but I can only find Purolite which I believe it is only 8% crosslink. Any suggest place to order the resin?

Yes, I do. Thanks for the tips

I have not use hardness tester, but base on how smooth of water felt. All I'm doing now is eliminate and narrow down for fact finding before next step

Thanks for the inputs guys, you guys are great. To be honest, I am running out of soft water before the regeneration + water not soft enough (BF set at 28). I am basing on the memory as I recall the service guy only replace with one bag of resin, that's why I start this thread. As I look up and...

Go it. It is different way to setting up the reserve capacity. Your recommend setting seems to use less salt per regeneration but more frequently to ensure water stays soft.

Thanks, Let me look into the setting you provided. Here is my current setting: Fleck 7000SXT Settings: DF = Gal ; Units VT = dF2b ; Downflw/Upflw, Double Backwash CT = Fd ; Meter Delayed regen trigger C = 48.0 ; capacity in 1000 grains H = 25 ; Hardness grains after compensation RS = SF SF =...

I am base on what local water company report average of 20 grains of hardness since it was on some well water. I set at 25 just to be sure I do t run off of soft water since I hardly have the same experience of soft water since day 1 compare with my old GE water softener. To be honest I wasn’t...
