Digital Metering Technology Explained:

The Fleck 5600 SXT's digital metering system represents a significant advancement over traditional timer-based softeners. Instead of regenerating on a fixed schedule, the system continuously monitors water consumption and automatically initiates regeneration when the softening capacity is nearly exhausted. This demand-based approach ensures that regeneration occurs only when needed, typically saving 20-50% on salt consumption compared to timed systems. The digital display provides real-time information about system status, water usage, and maintenance requirements, making it easy for homeowners to monitor performance and optimize settings.
