I have a rainsoft water system for the whole house connected to our well. It worked fine when I first moved in 4 months ago, but now I have a high concentration of iron in the water. I have been putting salt in it regularly but never added RedOut salt because I didn't realize there was a lot of iron in the water here. It was full of salt when I moved in and I didn't think to ask at the time. Is it OK to scoop out all of the salt tablets and refill it with redout salt tablets? Do I have to shut it down to do that or will it be OK for the few minutes necessary to replace the salt tablets?

The only manual I have for the unit is:

Model 2510 & 2510 Econominder (this may be a Fleck system based on my web search)

There is the tall tank (The control unit on the top matches the one in the book for the 2510)

Another tall tank with an electronic brain control unit on top with a model number of AM24T (The label states RainSoft Electronic Brain)

The salt tank (tall, rectangular, green plastic)

A silver metal roundish oval shaped tank (don't know what it is for)

A small very dark green unit which has oxidizer written on it.

Try a manual regeneration of the system to make sure it's functioning properly. When it calls for brine, make sure it sucks the water out of the salt tank, etc. If not, it needs maintenance. Usually the injector gets clogged. Contact Rainsoft and they will give you a number for your local service center. All mechanical parts are guaranteed for life. I've rebuilt my unit when it needs servicing. Rainsoft gives me whatever parts I need for free and I give them the old parts back. Otherwise, they will service for you.

I have a rainsoft water system for the whole house connected to our well. If the well stores water in a captive air tank supply and is unfiltered there lies the first problem. A non captive tank will get waterlogged over a period and needs backflushing. If the softwater system is your storage then this still applies. It worked fine when I first moved in 4 months ago, but now I have a high concentration of iron in the water. Iron requires sediment filtering. I am not sure what the softener system process handles but a 4 month cycle is about needed in non captive air charged setups.

A drinking water filtration system is highly recommended at the sink and laves cold water piping. Soft water systems are known to have health issues concerning heart problems. Most hospitals use a separate domestic supply for this reason.
Hope this makes sense. nmwirez
