I recently had a 1 yr service to a Fleck 5600sxt unit that was preforming fine no complaints. After service, Tech reported untreated water from well as: Iron=4, Hard=23, pH=7.2, TDS=231 and treated water as: Iron=1-2, Hard=1, pH=7.2, TDS=242. I also recall a vague comment about adjusting the level of water in the brine tank which will save salt.
For several days after service, the treated water had visible iron affecting clarity and staining toilets with a distinct smell of sulfur.
Return visit, slight improvement but still signs of rust and a sulfur smell. Tech indicates now I may have salt intrusion in my well.
I am having the untreated water tested by a State approved lab to determine if I suddenly have an issue with the well. But, i am scratching my head on the sudden problems with iron and odor that were not an issue for a year.
Any advice or tips?
