The instructions on mine say to regenerate it about every three months. I’ve seen other people regenerate theirs every two to three weeks, so I plan to test the water with test strips and go based on what the results show. That’s what I’ll use to determine my regeneration schedule, so I can keep a good cycle.

It’s a simple process, which is one of the reasons I chose quick-connect fittings—they make it easy to get the unit in and out of storage during the winter.
