One question I get pretty often is what keeps a water softener from overfilling with water and flooding the garage?
There are actually a couple of safeguards built into the system. The control valve regulates when water is sent to the brine tank, and inside the tank itself, there’s a safety float assembly designed to shut off the incoming water if the level gets too high.
These components are pretty simple, but they’re also extremely important. It’s one of the reasons we’re particular about the equipment we install and why we use the Clack WS1 control valve on our State48Water systems. If you have an older softener that’s filling with too much water, give us a shout and we’d be happy to take a look.
