Hello everyone. I am looking for some guidance on my water softener.
1. Old fleck 5600 valve.
2. I have had the unit for the years with no maintenance. I purchased it second hand and I do not know how long the other owner used it.
3. 10 GPG hardness
4. Settings: 20, with 12 bags of salt.
After each regeneration, the tap water is milky white - see picture. After sitting in a glass for a couple of minutes, the water clears.
I did a manual regeneration a couple of weeks ago and the watercolor of the rinse cycle resembles was coming out of the tap.
Time for a new valve? New media? Or both?
Thank you in advance for your comments.
Luis
