Just to clarify I have not programmed my softener arbitrarily. I do understand the chemistry behind the brine and regeneration. In the beginning I followed the SST 60s guidelines of 27k grains and set it to regenerate at 90% of 27K grains or 24K (mathematically this left me with 1 day before...

I did change the BLFC in the programming.

So there was a slight misunderstanding in nomenclature. I thought BF stood for backflow, now I see it stands for BRINE Flow. My tank refill is set for 17 minutes. This was auto programmed by the 5800. I will check the flow on my BLFC to ensure I am getting the flow I need. Thanks again for...

Any thoughts?

This is why I was asking. Using their chart this is what I was expecting. My controller is the Fleck 5800 XTR2. Hardness is 22 gpg uncompensated. Last time I checked iron was awhile ago If BF time stands for BF time it is set at 10 mins BLFC .125 gpm The 0ppm to 1gpg criteria is something I...

I have the Hach HA-71A hardness test kit and have been testing my hardness since I installed my softener. My hardness after softening is 0ppm and I wait until 1 gpg as considered by threshold for break through. I have been routinely getting 41k grains on 4lbs salt/ft3 resin. 1.5 ft3 of SST 60...
