I have been plagued with black or grey water appearing frequently in toilets and sinks generally following regeneration of a water softener. It's a Water Boss 950. I am assuming somehow the activated carbon is exiting the resin tank and entering the piping for the house water system. It generally goes away after flushing only to appear again with regeneration. The Water Boss folks have been no help at all. So my questions are as follows:
1. Could it be possible my assumed cause of the black water is correct? Any other ideas?
2. If this is the cause, what would be wrong with the Water Boss 950 that results in the carbon in the piping system?
3. Would replacing the media without adding the activated carbon solve my problem? Is the activated carbon really necessary? Their 900 model does not use it.
4. The spec's. include Redox Media - what is that? Is it necessary?
5. Would ordinary resin work or do I need Super Fine Mesh Resin? What is that?
