    Fleck 5600sxt regen question

    I wondered if maybe that's how it worked. I went back and thoroughly read the manual which states "Meter Delayed Control - As with Meter Immediate systems, the control calculates the system capacity by dividing the unit capacity by the feedwater hardness and subtracting the reserve. The...

    Fleck 5600sxt regen question

    Using an RC value of 240, my gallons countdown will go below 240 and a regen does not happen at 2am. I've noticed this twice and both times I have triggered a manual regen for fear of getting to 0. What gives?

    It just dawned on me that BF is minutes * 1.5/lb (per minute) = 9lbs per regen. Took me too long to catch onto that :) I need to jot all these equations down somewhere...

    Thanks for the chart. Based on that my C should be 31.5. Not sure if the valve can program decimals, so maybe just going with 31. This has been very helpful. I've seen some posts using DO=28 for medium hardness municipal water. Is that a worthwhile change to save a bit of water exchange?

    I've read through several posts which are similar to my own situation, but wanted to double check the values I've taken from other posts. I recently purchased and plumbed my setup: Fleck 5600SXT 48000 grain 10% crosslink resin Municipal Water Hardness of 18 Iron of 0 4 household members (two...
