NO
BRINE DRAW
Problem:
- Brine
tank full of water
- No
soft water
- Not
using salt
Solution:
1.
Use the following steps to disassemble and clean the nozzle
and venturi.
-
Clean
all parts using a soft tooth brush, mild soap and warm water.
Use resin bed cleaner if parts are iron coated. Rinse with
clean fresh water. Do not use any sharp or hard objects to
clean bottom of item #6.
-
Remove
parts 1-7, 9 and 10. Set parts aside and clean.
- Reinstall
cap (#1) and o-ring (#2).

2.
Lift the brine valve assembly (#13) from the brinewell.
-
Remove
the plastic clip (#12) and pull the asembly apart.
-
Use
the SELECT or TOUCH HOLD button to enter the unit into
a manual regeneration and advance the valve to the fill position.
-
As
the valve advances into FILL, there will be a flow of water
from the tubing. Use this to wash down the brine valve assembly
of any excess salt. Also wash down the brine well of excess
salt.
-
Move
the bypass valve into BYPASS to shut off the flow of water to
the valve.
-
Use
the toothbrush to thoroughly clean the nozzle and venturi (#6),
flow plugs (#5 and #9) and screens (#4, #10 and #11). Carefully
clean the flow plug center hole with a small wire.
-
Reassemble
all parts in the nozzle venturi. BE SURE #& is installed
correctly, numbers up on the flow plugs (#5 and #9).
-
Advance
the valve into the BRINE position. Place the bypass valve into
service and check for suction on the tubing that connects to
the brine valve assembly. If not, recheck the assembly of the
nozzle venturi. If still no suction see "VALVE NOT WORKING."
-
If
suction is now working, reinstall the brine valve assembly and
finish the regeneration.
