How It Works
The BUTTON-3.5 Fleck Flow Button is a crucial component inside Fleck control valves, regulating the flow of water through the softening system. By maintaining a steady flow rate of 3.5 gallons per minute, it ensures that the resin bed inside the softener is properly utilized for optimal ion exchange.
Its precise design controls water pressure and volume, preventing surges that could disrupt regeneration cycles or damage the valve. This flow button acts as a gatekeeper, balancing water movement to maximize treatment efficiency and protect the internal mechanisms of your water softener.
What to Expect
Once installed, you’ll immediately notice smoother water flow through your Fleck system, contributing to more consistent softening results. During the first days and weeks, the valve will operate with improved stability, minimizing fluctuations that may have affected water quality or system performance.
Over the longer term, this flow button helps reduce mechanical wear and the need for premature repairs, making maintenance easier and extending the lifespan of your water softener’s control valve.
