Great video, exactly what I needed and one of the best softener videos on KZread. Only advice would be to change the video thumbnail, I didn’t click on it initially as it was just showing the little blue gear 👍
Do you sell replacements for the impeller? The pinion gear teeth are worn down on mine. Thank you

Sorry. I would need to know model, water usage, disc, hardness. I wouldn't want to guess it.

@@TheWaterBoyuk Thanks for reply. I had actually a dealer here, different company then kinetico. He confirmed that the Kinetico does not have any problem but it does not match the capacity needed. We are 14 people in the house, nobody takes care, we use 1.5m3 per day minium. I did lots of investigation on it and the model I have it is Kinetico DuoMatik II, Winterhalter company in Germany use them for comercial dishwashers. They have 2 tanks each of about 5l. I tried to contact the winterhalter company but they have no interest to help if I did not buy from them. During the weekend when we are only 3 people in the house, there is no regeneration at all, this somehow confirms me what the dealer said. Of course he wants to sell me his machine for 5000 tax+instalation. My idea it is to buy bigger tanks 41 liters or even I saw 103 liters as well, buy resin and it should be fine. But I am afraid the kinetico needs also some gear wheels change. I am not sure how it works regarding the gears? Do I need to change somebgears as well if I change the tanks?? The regeneration it is set up by the quantity of consumed water/ tank capacity or when it is full of calcium it regenerates? The resin I have available here it is ion exchanger for decalcification FG 160 (Na+). Here are some technical data for winterhalterkinetico Technical data: Water consumption: approx. 32 liters/regeneration Salt consumption: approx. 0.3 kg/regeneration Flow rate at 2.5-6 bar operating pressure: continuously 22 l/min maximum 30 l/min Pressure loss: approx. 1 bar Weight: approx. 21 kg (empty) Salt filling quantity: approx. 20 kg Raw water: max. 32°d The maximum permissible water temperature is: 50°C Visually it looks like this: www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/winterhalter-duomatik-ii-wasserenthaerter/2730852831-176-4808 I do have as well the spare parts list, if you want I can share it with you, here it is a list especially the gears.If needed I can open it and look at the gear you advice me to look or change??. Do you have all wheels gears? Can I buy from you? 1 Control head top part 30012496 1.1 Cover for control unit 30012491 1.2 Screw; 4,5 X 15; SW6,5 51 01 272 8 1.3 Gasket 51 01 277 1.4 Balance piston 30002403 1.5 Spring 51 01 284 1.6 O-ring 51 01 278 1.7 Hardness disc 30012492 1.8 Water Meter Disc 30012493 1.9 Control disc 30012494 1.10 Filter Level 1; 10,7 X 0,5 MM 51 01 273 1.11 Ratchet 51 01 283 1.12 Axle lock 51 01 570 1.13 Tooth wheel no. 6 30012163 1.14 Tooth wheel no. 7 30012164 1.15 Turbine no. 9 51 01 392 1.16 Flow jet; DUO II 51 01 697 built-in, when delivered 1.17 Tooth wheel no. 2 51 01 034 6 1.18 Turbine No. 10 (Jet) 51 01 701 1.19 O-Ring 30002357 1.20 Pin 30002378 1.21 Ratchet 30002414 1.22 Pawl for reg.

Thanksand I appreciate a lot your input. I am not awaiting any free service from you, Ben I forget to add that the softener makes the water soft, the guy measured the PH and it was in very good parameters even with 5 l tanks, we definately can see it as well that, there is no calc on the shower glass doors, it is that 60 liters of water par ay it is quite a lot, as well lots of salt goes away.

@@TheWaterBoyuk I did have somebody to look at it and he said the Kinetico works perfect but the capacity it is not for 1500l water per day. It has only 2 pressure tanks, each of 5l aprox. My quastion would be if I put bigger tanksdo I need to change some gear wheels as well?? Regeneration it is done just by sensing some pressure or it is some programed by liters consumed??
