FREEBOARD MEASUREMENT

(Distance from top of resin tank, to top of resin bed.)

A. If the softener does not draw brine:

-nozzle and/or venturi dirty or defective.

-nozzle and venturi not seated properly on gas- ket.

-restricted drain (check drain fitting and hose).

-defective nozzle and venturi seal.

-other inner valve defect (rotor seal, rotor & disc, wave washer, etc.).

NOTE: If water system pressure is low, an elevated drain hose may cause back pressure, stopping brine draw.
