Manteniment

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your water softener system.

• Salt Level Monitoring: Periodically check the salt level in the brine tank. Ensure it remains above the water level and is refilled with high-quality salt pellets as needed. Avoid overfilling to prevent salt bridges.
• Salt Bridge Prevention: If a hard crust of salt forms in the brine tank (a "salt bridge"), carefully break it up with a blunt object to allow proper salt dissolution.
• Inspecció del filtre: If your system includes pre-filters, inspect and clean or replace them regularly to prevent sediment buildup and maintain water pressure.
• Neteja del sistema: Occasionally clean the brine tank to remove any residue or sludge.

Resolució de problemes

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Ivation H2O Water Softener System. For more complex problems, refer to the contact information in the Support section.

No Soft Water?

• Check the bypass valve to ensure it is not set to bypass mode.
• Verify the salt tank has sufficient salt.
• Confirm the system is not currently in the middle of a regeneration cycle.

Low Water Pressure?

• This could be due to clogged filters or sediment buildup. Check and clean the filters.
• Inspect the system for any blockages in the plumbing lines.

Excessive Salt Usage?

• Adjust the hardness settings according to your water's actual hardness level.
• Ensure the system is sized appropriately for your household's water usage.

Leaks?

• Immediately check all connections for tightness.
• Look for cracks or damage in the tank or fittings. Turn off the water supply and contact your local plumber for further assistance if damage is found.

System Regeneration Issues?

• Check the programming settings to ensure they are correct.
• Inspect the brine line and drain line for blockages or kinks that could prevent brine from being drawn into the system.

Salt Bridges or Mushing?

• Salt bridges or mushing can occur, preventing salt from dissolving correctly. If you suspect a bridge, carefully break it up.
• To prevent mushing, avoid overfilling the salt tank and use high-quality salt pellets.

Error Codes?

• Encountering error codes on your display? Refer to your operations manual for a detailed explanation of each code and follow the suggested actions.
