I think it is, because it is designed to prevent people from buying online or from big box stores and frankly I don't know of any big box stores that don't provide service from someone wherever they sell their softeners, plus a tech support toll free phone number along with animated graphic troubleshooting on their web sites. And the animated graphics stuff, frankly, that is much more than any local dealer I've ever seen, including myself. I don't see any troubleshooting of any kind on your web site....Where am I anti DIY?
Because I made the statement that one could buy from a box store or from on line with no backup? that is Anti ?????
I didn't disagree with you about a loose nut on the brine line, I added to what you said by mentioning high pressure that could cause that and the water hammer mentioned in both the subject and text of the post. High pressure could have split the brine line tubing causing the leak too. Right? And we weren't told where teh leak was specifically, so it could be the nut or the tubing or the elbow the tubing is connected to. So I suggested he watch during a manual regeneration.This thread is going where no one has gone before...
It started with a home owner asking a question, I answered as to one of the things that it could be and then was told that that was next to impossible and that it was what line pressure from the main plumbing?
Very good, yet I don't see anything in there about water hammer, the subject of the thread and the noise mentioned in the text of the OP. Do you?There was a note from WaterRight years ago in their letter to dealers that the nut on the brine float assembly could either back off or was not tight enough at the start that could cause the problem that the home owner was talking about.
Now see what you went'n did...maybe I'm just one of them sensitive kinda guys but for some reason I see me as to who you're referring to with all the answers and being wrong. If I'm wrong about it being me, tell me who it is, only you'n me have posted in this thread. Well there is Skippy confusing himself with what I said to you but...I have no problem in when not having an answer for a customer telling then that I have no answer but that I know where I could find some answers and get back to them on that... but there are others that feel that they have all the answers even if they are wrong..
so where am I being untruthful?
And IIRC, the only thing I've ever said about you is that you don't size softeners correctly, and that your experience is mostly on big box brands that are nowhere near the quality of Autotrol, Clack or Fleck control valves and their parts.
Bob, that IIRC thing (if I recall correctly) covers anything left out inadvertently. I thought most posters understand that shorthand, I guess you didn't, sorry.
No it's from the old dos days Bulletin Board Services (BBS) and means if I recall correctly.
Gentlemen, If you have a problem with a post just hit the report post button and let the mods deal with it. Now, what was this whole thread about? Oh yea, water hammer.
You don't remember saying that I probably don't use any underbedding? Or the fact that you said I use a "J" tube instead of a #500 air check making it sound that I go cheap? And I proved to you the "J" tube was, in fact, a #500 air check. Or the fact that you said I sold on line for x amount but that I advertised locally for a higher amount. Do you remember saying these? So don't try and save face saying you only say I size the unit wrong.I wasn't talking to you. I quoted what comments I replied to.

This is awkward, but...
