FL60086, Fleck 5600 Meter, 3/4 Std Range, 60086

FL60086 Fleck 5600 Meter Valve – Precision Control for Efficient Water Softening

The FL60086 Fleck 5600 Meter valve is designed to optimize your water softener’s performance by accurately measuring water usage and controlling regeneration cycles. Unlike generic valves, this component offers precise metering combined with durable construction, ensuring your water treatment system runs efficiently and reliably. Ideal for those seeking dependable Fleck valve parts, the FL60086 provides enhanced control for a consistent supply of softened water.

Key Benefits

• Ensures accurate water usage measurement to reduce salt and water waste
• Improves system efficiency by triggering regeneration only when needed
• Durable construction extends valve lifespan under regular water softener operation
• Compatible with standard 3/4-inch Fleck 5600 series softeners for easy replacement
• Helps maintain consistent water softness for improved appliance longevity
• Reduces maintenance frequency by reliably managing valve functions

How It Works

The FL60086 valve integrates a precise meter that tracks your household water consumption, feeding this data to the control valve mechanism. When the system detects that the softener’s resin has reached capacity, it initiates a regeneration cycle automatically. This metered approach ensures that the softener regenerates only when necessary, saving salt and water compared to timer-based systems. Its 3/4-inch standard fitting makes it compatible with many Fleck 5600 models, providing seamless integration into your existing water treatment setup.

What to Expect

After installation, you’ll immediately notice that your water softener operates with improved precision, regenerating based on actual water usage rather than preset schedules. In the first few days, the system will calibrate itself to your household’s water patterns, optimizing regeneration timing. Over the long term, the FL60086 valve offers reliable performance with minimal intervention, helping to extend the life of your water softener and reduce operational costs.
