Regeneration flushes the resin with brine to restore its softening ability.
The cause
A timer fault, a stuck valve, or a clogged brine line stops the cycle.
The fix
Manual regeneration and a valve check usually identify the issue.
The call
Restore the soft water. Call 888-217-3585 and Modesto Plumbing Experts will match you with a Modesto pro.
