## Description

FLECK 5600SXT ON-DEMAND METERED WATER SOFTENER THIS COMPLETE WATER SOFTENER COMES WITH: HIGH CAPACITY RESIN FIBER GLASS RESIN TANK BRINE TANK w/safety float 1" BYPASS COMPLETE SYSTEM 5600SXT ON-DEMAND METERED CONTROL VALVE CHOICE OF BLUE, BLACK OR ALMOND TANKS

Review: Easy assembly, quality product, works flawlessly. - Excellent water softener. Reduced our pH, hardness and iron content in the water instantly. Easy assembly (you will need some pex adapters from the hardware store), and easy operation. Uses less salt than others I have had. Quiet and well built.
Review: Very simple controller setup. - I ran into a couple plumbing issues when I was hooking this up, but it was my fault for trying to cheap-out at first. Do yourself a favor and don’t mess with the typical copper fitting with pipe threads. It will likely leak and the hassle isn’t worth saving a couple bucks. Buy water heater connectors, and use those to hook this up, and you’ll be done quickly! Once the plumbing portion is done, it’s quick to finalize the setup. Just enter the couple things needed on the controller and you’re all set to go. Just don’t forget to switch the bypass to run through the softener... it took me a day of wondering why my water wasn’t soft before I realized what had happened. Also, if you lose the hardness test strips that supposedly come with this (I couldn’t find them, but I probably lost them), it’s easy to find your approximate hardness with a couple minutes of searching online - water hardness is generally pretty consistent within a general location. Also, if you have a pool or aquarium water test kit, it probably has a hardness test included. Notes and suggestions aside, the softener has been working well, and I love having softer water!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have an 8 person family and a 3 bath house. Water hardness is around 11-12 gpg. What system would you recommend and do you have twin resin tanks?**
A: The company is available to answer your questions.  I'm still very happy with my system.  We only have one resin tank.

**Q: Can this be installed outdoors?**
A: Yes it can be. As long as it is not exposed to freezing temperatures.
The folks at Aplus Water.

**Q: Can it be used with an 1.25 inch water supply pipe?**
A: Yes but will restrick the flow to equal a 1" pipe

**Q: Does the hose that connects the brine tank to the resin tank pull in brine water as well as send water back from the supply line into the brine tank?**
A: Yes, it does serve both purposes.

During the BD (Brine Draw) it draws the water into the water softener.

The last step is the BF (Brine Fill) where it puts water back into the brine/salt tank.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great but connection assembly could be better.
*by A***B on February 1, 2018*

Works great so far but a few minor complaints and/or items for improvement. The flow meter, bypass assembly and adapter setup is very annoying. The fittings are wobbly and a bit loose even when tightened all the way. They don't leak, just feel flimsy. The whole assembly sticks way far out the back so I had to mount the tank far away from the wall to allow room for pipes. The 1" NPT adapter is made of plastic. To get 1" pipe threads to not leak, you need a lot of tape and to stand on it with a pipe wrench. I made it work but was terrified I was going to break it. Also wish the brine tank had a flat top so I could pile junk on top of it, like my old one. These are minor, setup and install is easy and works well.
