How It Works

The FL56L/16-0.0 Fleck 5600 L-Back Timer functions as the brain of your water softener’s control valve. It uses an electronic timer to manage the regeneration cycles of your softener system, activating the valve at preset intervals. This ensures that hard water minerals like calcium and magnesium are regularly flushed out, maintaining softened water quality throughout your home or business.

By integrating with the Fleck 5600 control valve, this timer manages the valve’s position during service and regeneration phases, coordinating valve movements to optimize resin bed cleaning and water flow. Its 24V power supply ensures stable operation, making it suitable for a variety of water softener models and setups.

What to Expect

Upon installation, you’ll notice your water softener begins regenerating according to the timer’s programmed schedule, providing softened water consistently without manual intervention. During the first few days, the system will stabilize, and you may observe improved water quality with reduced hardness and scale.

Over the longer term, the FL56L/16-0.0 timer maintains precise control over regeneration cycles, contributing to the longevity and efficiency of your water softener system. Routine maintenance is minimal, mainly involving periodic checks to ensure the timer and valve connections remain secure and free of damage.
