Flow pur water softener not working
flow pur stopped working. I regenerated it, no help. When I add salt now it just goes through the system and out the faucet. Would appreciate any help. Thanks, Dave

- The salt is supposed to go out the outlet. Not sure what you think it's not doing. You fill with 2# of table salt, let sit for 5 minutes, flush for 20 minutes. When that's done your resin should have been regenerated. What part of that is not happening?
- Just did that, it didn't change anything
- When was the last time you 'back flushed' the softener???
Resin beads can get compacted..channeled
Back Flushing
Twice a year, perform a back flush of the system.
Back flushing is performed by feeding water into the outlet port of the system. Allow water to flow out of the inlet connection at a rate of one gallon per minute.
This reverse flow process mechanically cleans the resin bed.
If back flushing is being done along with a regeneration process the back flush should be done first.
