I currently have a Fleck 5600SXT 48K. I have around 10 - 11 grains of hardness and about .3ppm of iron. I don't have a reserver set in it at all. So it ran for almost month and ran out of water in the middle of the day. I intentionally did this because I wanted to see what happens without a reserve. So I tested the water (Hach test) and the water had 0 hardness before about 100 gallons or so. Then when it ran out of water (0 gallons) it flashed "RC ------" on the display. I ran the water for several minutes and tested it and I still got (0 gallons) even though the machine showed 0 gallons of water left.
So later that night/morning the system regenerated and everything is good.
My question is will it cause any damage to the resin bed or system if I let it go that "deep" without a regen? I currently have my DO set to 28 days. It seems there is some soft water present even though the system shows 0 gallons of softeness.
