don't fill it more than half, you want to see that the unit is consuming the salt, but filling it all the way sometimes leads to a hollow pathway in the dissolved salt under the pile, the water channels through the path and your softener will be sounding like it is working, but doing very little. Be aware that there are different types of salt depending on your water type... there are rust removers, etc... I don't see how importing salt from Finland is going to be much more efficient than buying the salt at ACE hardware- whatever floats your boat.

Make sure the water level sensor float is free moving.

The overflow sensor is stuck or sticking, look up your service manual online and it should show you how to check it, or look it up on U-Tube.

Most likely a seal has failed, the pump is leaking, or the water/drain line has a hole. ...

Better make sure it seals properly lest you have a nice flood!

Check the heater circuit

Water valve is going bad.
