NEW HOME OWNER/NEW TO WATER SOFTENING
-Just bought a home with a pentair 7000 water softener softener is working I had a so called WATER DR come out and inspect my softener to troubleshoot softener. All he did was open my brine tank lid to see if i had salt in it and hit some buttons on on the controller. He tested my water with what I assume was a hach5b test kit it took 16 drops. Ithe regenerates just fine goes through all the motions last nite I reset all the settings to the default settings the only one that I think was wrong was the hardness setting it was at 9 I changed it to 16 is that right?
Any help would be much appreciated. The house sat empty for a couple months when we purchased the house the brine tank had no salt just water. I cleaned the tank out and added salt yesterday I watched it suck the brine solution out and refill so I assume the brine system is functioning correctly?
Any idea or suggestions were to start. The so called WATER DR tried selling me a new 3500 dollar unit.
