I have a Kenmore Water Softener that I purchased in 2002 (27,000 grain model) ....Lately it has been severely restricting the water pressure (drops to almost nothing) when we take a shower or run the washing machine. It seems to work OK when just running the sink faucet or flushing the toilet.....I'm at my wit's end...I have taken it apart and stirred the resin beads up as I thought there may been sediment at the bottom/blocking the water flow. I used "water softener cleaner" that I got at Sears and it worked OK for a day or two but then the problem was back.....I hate to spend $400 on another one as this one is only 4 years old.....
Any ideas????
