How to regenerate a Kinetico Essential 8
this helped explain this to me thx
Too much salt! I found a leak in the outside pipe where it was installed by the Supplier through brickwork. I wrapped and moved the pipe: No Problems now!
That is a tricky one, I can only say that it may help with irritation and inflammation. However, diet and environment is the first port of call with ANY dis-ease.
I know it’s late but could this hard water condition cause acne?

Who's here in 2024? Thank you for this test.
how does one get ahold of this soft water ?
Hi there, see if friends or family own one and see how their experience was\is. Alternatively, website search engines.
This is so helpful thank you so much!
But you cant drink any of this
You are correct, soapy water is an unwise choice of beverage.
Why we have to repet twice?
to regenerate both tanks
Which soap should I use to test this?
Any soap will work for this test.
As a visual learner.. this summed up hours of other videos exposing this in literally a few minutes. 😎
No such thing as a visual learner. It just means you are low IQ if you need to see it.
Simple precise. Cheers.
Hi, great video. What do you do when this is the case: the salt is going down, but the water isn't getting softer?
Check for an 'external pipe leak' as I did...... Shoddy Installation!
Is there a possibility that hard water still creates a lather?
Hi there, yes you will get a lather from hard water. You just need to use more soap 🧼🫧
Thank you, @scottjenkinswatersofteners1643, for reaching out. I am actually referring to a low level of hard water, which is more like the early stages of well water turning into hard water. Unfortunately, I cannot afford a water test at the moment. However, I have developed eczema since moving to my new place, and I suspect that the water supply may be the cause. While the water doesn't taste metallic or have a strong odour, it can sometimes have a mildly sour taste.
Hi I have a kinetico kube 1 , i just wanted to know how high the water level should be in the salt tank? many thanks
I like in the uk and have always had soft water in all of my houses I’ve lived in
Idk what I expected when I clicked this video but man, I was NOT expecting the absolute disdain in this man’s voice for hard water 😂😂
it could be regenerating too often and that is why is is using too much salt
Hi Radish, thanks for your comment. That would be true if the softener was set to the wrong hardness. Otherwise, kinetico softeners don't just regenerate sporadically they are metered. Kind regards, Scott
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 Thanks, how would one change the setting, have you a video for that?
@@radishpea6615 the best thing to do would contact your local dealer for advice. If anything goes wrong it will affect your warranty.
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 It is out of warranty. Can/will you advise how to change the frequency of regeneration please?
@@radishpea6615 firstly, why do you want to change the frequency of regeneration and can you tell me what disk it is currently on and how hard your water is please?
No way I'm tweaking
ive only ever used soap in the uk and i thought the opaque cloudiness was normal i didnt know it was supposed to make bubbles!!!!!!!! mind blown
Hi Jason, exactly! Our water softeners seem to be Britain's best kept secret. Thanks for your comment 😀
Crikey! This bloke knows 'is Kinetico!
wicked! thanks :)
i now understand hard vs soft water :)
Hi Scott, found your video’s incredibly helpful. I have a question, my water softeners salt compartment is filled up with water, around 4 inches high. Is there a way I can empty this out? Thankyou!
Hi Molly, Thank you for your nice comment. Which water softener do you have?
We have had a softener now for a while (5 months) but we still cannot seem to get the clothing really soft? Any idea.
Hi, have you reduced the laundry detergent to perhaps 1/3 of what you once used? How old and what fabric are you most unhappy with?
We have a Harvey’s. Water level is correct but how’s the best way to test if it’s set up correctly on the adjuster dial ?
Hi, if you can tell me which softener and the gear setting and either your area to which you live or the water hardness, then I should be able to tell you if it is set correctly.
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 It’s a Harvey’s block salt softener which has on the label - H20, service 800, regen 17, Resin 350, b/v 1. Salt use set on normal. I live in Howden, East Yorkshire which is very hard I think.
@@S.wilson911 all settings would seem to be correct. Are ypu getting hard water?
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 no but it uses a lot more salt than my sisters. We both got the at the same time.
@@S.wilson911have a look at this link below. Don't forget the softeners although the same you may just use more water than her, hence using more salt. www.sjwatersofteners.co.uk/is-my-water-softener-using-too-much-salt/
You mix hard water and soft water together

No wonder my bras never look clean when I hand wash in sink with hard water.
My water takes forever for soap to rinse off, leaves a slimy/slippery feeling, makes my hair feel soft (which I don't like), and generally you never feel completely rinsed off because your entire body feels slimy/slippery. I'm guessing I have soft water then?
You sound so angry at the existence of the hard water lol
Thank you
Hlo sir I had also tested it today and it is same as right bowl but foam is also present in it , so it is hard or soft
I would say it is hard, however. It may be moderately soft. The water in my video is 300ppm's
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 ok thanks so much, there are white spots on taps ,bathroom doors and utensils in our house and how much ppm is safe for bathing as we have no problem in drinking this type of water but it is damaging our hair
@@goldy6576 this is difficult to say, because it is more of an opinion than anything. In my opinion uk water is always safe to bathe in and I would say 50ppm is the maximum I personally would choose to bathe in.
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 ok which water softener will u recommend I live in india 🇮🇳
@@goldy6576 sorry I have no idea, have a look on my website and see if any brands I use are available in india
we can use any soap or no
Yes, you can use any soap
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 ok thanks
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 btw i got ur video from our chemistry teacher he loved ur video so much the whole class watched it! but i have exam in it😭but ur video helped me to understand more thanksssss😉😁

Is bottled spring water hard or soft?
Check the mineral content on the bottle. If it has magnesium and calcium in it then yes it will be.
isn't ice considered hard water?
Yes. Water can also be a vapour as well as a solid.
Oh my god now I can understand ❤️👍 thanks sir
Brilliant - thank you!
ohh soo i get it finnally my teacher is like there is two water hard and soft. i thought it was joke but its true also in my science subject
Where abouts in the world are you?
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 well i was was lost but what about u. U are replying this comment after 4 months🤣🤣
Will there be a difference if I do this test with ivory soap?
I have never tried it with ivory soap. However, I imagine that sopa scum will still be visible.
Thnx dude, really helpful
Hi our Kinetico 2020c stopped working. I took the plastic lid/cover off to take a look and the tanks have what looks like salt build up on them. Any ideas on what the problem might be? And advice on diy repair would be much appreciated. Many thanks. John
Hi John, this sounds to me like salt creep. Rinse off with warm water, this will dissolve the salt build up and it will fall into the cabinet, excess water should discharge out of the overflow.
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 Thanks for that Scott. I’ve washed the whole thing down - but it’s still not working. I guess I’ll have to get someone out.
@@johnmiller4551 if we can help further give us a call 01243607494
Hi there, we have kineticon2020 I just started again as the salt wasn't running on the system. But is it normal that the water at the bottom of the box is brown? Can this be clean? Thanks. Natalia
I'm the 400th subscriber to this channel. Keep going
Wow! Best explanation and educative. Thanks alot 😊
Are there any benefits of installing a whole house water filtration system with a water softener system?
Yes most definitely! The cleaner your water the better :)
@@scottjenkinswatersofteners1643 Will adding the Whole House Water Filter before the Water Softener System help reduce the amount of salt needed by the Water Softener - i'm just trying to find ways to reduce the monthly cost of salt needed by the water softener system.
@@mikefa5891 no it won't make a difference in salt use.
