Hello all,
I've been experiencing an issue for several months with my Fleck system where my water system pressure drops off intermittently. The problem is resolved by placing the softener in bypass mode. The system is approximately six years old and we have a house of six, so we go through a lot of water. My understanding is the that the problem is probably either swollen resin or a clogged filter. How do I determine which of these two issues is the root cause? If it was a clogged filter, I expect that the problem would be present at all times, but it seems to be very inconsistent. Sometimes, the pressure is fine, other times it's between a trickle and normal. I was going to replace the resin with 1.5 cu ft of 10% cross linked, but figured I would inquire before dropping the coin and time. TIA!
