Hi All: First time poster. I've looked at several threads and am hopefully close. I'm attempting to go for a good efficiency of both water and salt, but not compromise hardness too much. We don't need the water "super slick" (as we've not had a softener before) - but clearly don't want to "fowl" the resin or have short term gain for long term pain. Appreciate a quick review. Thank you!
Water: City water supply - 30 gpg hardness, 0.1 ppm iron, 7 ppb manganese
Softener: Fleck 5600SXT Valve (Pentair Brand), Injector 2 (label), Drain Flow 3.5gpm (label), 3/4" paddle meter, 2.0 cu ft resin, 64,000 grain capacity (assume BLFC is 0.5gpm but no label)
Household: 2 adults, 1 teen, 2 children. 160 gal use / day (12 mo avg per water bill).
