Hi Kayball - thanks for your info about Waterside MC250. We just had a power cut - now power returns, MC250 seems to be letting water passthrough. Tried manual region - R0 displays and then a clicking sound for about 2 mins - then E2 is displayed - all the time sound of water running through - any ideas ? Kind Regards John

Hi Kayball - back from hols - can I contact you directly about my softener problem? Cheers

Hi Kayball, you seem to be the best source of help regarding the mc250 ultra and ours seems to have developed a couple of faults. It's discharging water via the overflow and not the usual outlet pipe,it's leaking significantly very near to the plastic outlet at the top by that outlet. It was installed in 2004 and has been fine until recently. Any ideas or help would be much appreciated. I manually regenerated it last night and bar the leaks the water was softened but the overflow took a lot of water again which is symtomatic of the faults we've noticed. Thanks very much in adavance for any help.
