I have a fleck 48,000 grain unit and a 5800 LXT head. Unfortunately the settings on the 5800 LXT all pretty much automated so I can't change them myself. I can change the capacity of the unit, which is set to 1.5. I turned the hardness up to 25 for the time being and have salt set at 9 lbs.
I don't know if the resin is bad or what else might be going on. The image linked below shows water test strips. One from a water bottle to ensure they are working correctly. The others were from inside the house and 1 from a hose outside that is not supposed to be softened.
I really don't know what to do at this point. When the softener regenerates, it does so without a problem and uses the salt that is in the brine tank.
