I have a Hydroflo 70 with Autotrol Brand 255 Valve water softening system. For the last few years, we have had no issues with our water system. Last night while running the washing machine we ran out of water (taps ran dry). This has never happened before. I checked the water pressure which was fine. Upon checking the brine tank I noticed the water level higher than the salt level which is unusual. Then, this morning, the first water running out of the taps was salty. A case of brine overload? So two issues:
1. Why would the taps run dry? Do I need to run the water conditioner system more often? Without bypassing the conditioner, I assume all water we use has to be conditioned. Right now it's just my wife and I living in the house, and I have it set to run 3 days a week.
2. Why would we get salty water? Unfortunately that issue is not addressed in the troubleshooting section of the manual.
Many thanks!
