How It Works
This Fleck control valve functions as the central mechanism regulating the water softener’s cycle. It meters water flow and triggers regeneration based on usage, ensuring your system replenishes the resin bed at optimal intervals. The integrated 4-channel injector helps manage the flow paths during the softening and regeneration phases.
By controlling these processes, the valve prevents hard water from bypassing treatment and avoids excessive salt or water use, making your water softening system more efficient and cost-effective.
What to Expect
Upon installation, you will notice smoother operation and consistent soft water output. Initially, the valve calibrates with your system’s flow and usage patterns, optimizing regeneration cycles within the first few days. This leads to balanced salt consumption and improved water quality.
Over time, the valve’s robust design ensures long-term reliability with minimal maintenance, helping your water softener maintain peak performance while reducing the risk of leaks or malfunctions.
