Description

Reliable Fleck Flow Button for Efficient Water Softener Control and Enhanced System Performance

When it comes to maintaining optimal water softener function, the BUTTON-20.0 Fleck Flow Button stands out as a dependable and efficient solution. Designed specifically for Fleck control valves and accessories, this flow button ensures precise water flow regulation at 20.0 gallons per minute (gpm), addressing common flow inconsistencies in water treatment systems. Its robust construction and compatibility make it a trusted choice for improving system reliability and longevity.

Key Benefits

  • Ensures consistent water flow for stable softener operation and improved treatment efficiency
  • Protects control valve components by maintaining proper flow rates, reducing wear and tear
  • Easy to install and compatible with a wide range of Fleck control valves and accessories
  • Enhances system longevity by preventing flow-related malfunctions and interruptions
  • Compact design minimizes pressure drop, supporting energy-efficient system performance
  • Durable materials resist corrosion and degradation in demanding water treatment environments

How It Works

The BUTTON-20.0 functions as a flow regulator within your water softener's Fleck control valve assembly. By precisely controlling water flow at 20.0 gpm, it ensures that the valve receives a steady, optimal flow rate necessary for effective regeneration cycles and system operation. This helps maintain balance within the system, preventing irregular flow spikes or drops that could impair softening performance.

Installed inside the valve’s flow path, the flow button directs water through a calibrated aperture, allowing only the designated volume to pass through at any given time. This mechanism supports consistent resin bed regeneration and efficient salt usage, contributing to better water quality and system durability.

What to Expect

Once installed, you will notice smoother operation of your Fleck control valve with fewer flow fluctuations, allowing for more reliable softening cycles. In the first days and weeks, the system will stabilize with improved regeneration timing and consistent water quality. Over the long term, the flow button helps reduce valve wear and minimizes maintenance needs, extending the overall lifespan of your water treatment setup.

Regular system checks remain important, but with this flow button in place, you can expect fewer interruptions and steady performance, even under varying water demand conditions.

What’s Inside

  • Precision-machined flow aperture – Ensures accurate 20.0 gpm flow control for consistent valve operation
  • Durable polymer housing – Provides corrosion resistance and long-lasting structural integrity
  • Sealing O-rings – Prevent leaks and maintain system pressure stability
  • Lightweight design – Minimizes impact on overall valve weight while maintaining robustness

How to Use

  1. Turn off water supply and relieve pressure in the water softener system before installation.
  2. Remove the existing flow button from the Fleck control valve, taking care not to damage surrounding components.
  3. Inspect the valve port and clean any debris or buildup to ensure a proper seal.
  4. Insert the BUTTON-20.0 flow button firmly into place, ensuring it seats correctly within the valve assembly.
  5. Reassemble any valve components removed during installation and restore water supply.
  6. Test system operation to confirm consistent flow and proper valve cycling.
  7. Monitor the system for a few cycles to verify stable performance.
