Ok, we had a new water softner system installed today. I was kinda in a rush and filled the V with fresh softened water and took off to do a small job for a regular client at one of his clients houses. When I started to pre-spray I was getting low to no water pressure from the hydro force. Went to check to make sure I hadn't had a hose burst to find the pump/entire unit pulsating. So shut pump off and decided to remove tank filter before pump and it was completely clogged with (what I later found to be resin) I suppose from the first back wash. Did manage to make it through that first job and went back to shop to see if I could flush the rest of the crap out. Checked filter again and it was completely full again of the resin (yellow grainually crap) so I decided I would take the hose female end off and just let the line free flow until all the crap was rinsed out. I can't get the pump to prime now. I am getting free running water from the hose (slightly) and I did take opposite line off on the head of the pump and I am definately getting plenty of water to pump. My guess is that this resin crap has stopped up the pistons. So I suppose Sat I will remove the head and go ahead and replace the seals etc. Any other suggestions for trying to flush this stuff out before removing the head. Also completely drained fresh tank and refilled.
Wife came out while I was working on truck and all the johns in the house weren't working, all flushers full of the resin crap as well as everything else in the house it seems. Never had this problem when we had water softner installed previously. So did the installer just fook up the job and didn't flush the system out like he should have?
Anyhow, any suggestive tips on removing cat pump head (this will be my first go at it) I will do the search funtion before Saturday cuz I know there has been stuff on this before.
