Cleaning a Venturi Nozzle on a Water Softener

A Venturi nozzle on your water softener may become clogged over a period of time, and it will cease to function as well as it should. If you do not clean this nozzle from time to time, the problem will continue to get worse until the nozzle does not function at all.

To prevent this from happening, you can simply get into a routine of cleaning the Venturi nozzle once a month. It will only take a few minutes to clean the nozzle, and it could save you the cost of hiring a technician to make some real repairs, which will cost you a lot more.

Disassembly and Cleaning
Unscrew the cap on the Venturi nozzle, and be sure to place it along with the inside parts onto a clean, dry surface. Mix a solution of liquid dish or hand soap in a small bowl of warm water. Then place the Venturi nozzle in the bowl of soapy warm water and let it soak for a few minutes. Then use a soft bristle brush to clean the Venturi nozzle and all of the parts gently.

Reassembly and Testing
Rinse the Venturi nozzle and pieces thoroughly with water from the faucet. Reassemble the nozzle exactly as it came apart. Test it to make sure that it operates properly. Operate the nozzle for a couple minutes to be sure that the soap has been flushed from inside the nozzle.
