With the help of this forum, I did a rebuild on a Fleck 5600 in May 2017. That went great. I'd been getting 1000 gallons between regens until recently. I detect the water is getting hard by boiling water in a kettle several times a week and when there is white stuff floating at the top afterwards, that is the sign. Seems I'm now getting around 600 gallons per regen.
This is the thread from 2 years ago with specific info on my setup:

I have quite a bit of salt in the tank, did the best I could to check for a bridge, didn't seem like there was one. I saw something about pouring hot water down the tube in the brine tank to loosen stuff up. Did not try that.
LB of salt set to 6, maybe increase that?
Given that the rebuild was not too long ago, what things should I check?
