I have a ecowater water softener. Recently we found out that it makes a lot of noise, kind of like the flushing noise only continuously. As I investigate further, apparently water run out through the drain continously when in use even though the system is not recharging. If I turn it off (bypass), then it stop.

Obviously the water should not be coming out from drain but I couldn't find anything wrong with the system. I check the salt, and nothing seems to be stuck. I charge the system and it is filling up the brine tank, but afterward, it continue to drain water out. Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks

Sounds like the valving may have gone south. That happened to me one time, had to replace the valve disk, it had sheared inside the housing.
