Iron-Soft 1.5: High-Capacity Iron Removal Water Softener for Well Water
‍

Extra Capacity. Extra Protection. Cleaner Water.

For homes with high water usage and persistent iron problems, the Iron-Soft 1.5 system offers a powerful upgrade. Designed with the same proven technology as our standard Iron-Soft system, this larger model delivers enhanced water softening and iron removal capacity — perfect for bigger households or homes with higher hardness and iron levels.

At Pure Water Choices, we tailor every installation to your specific water quality results, and the Iron-Soft 1.5 is built for those who need the extra horsepower.
‍

What Is the Iron-Soft 1.5 System?

This is a 13 x 54" Iron-Soft hybrid water softener that combines:

• Water softening (removes calcium & magnesium)
• Iron filtration (removes ferrous and ferric iron)

It’s built with a Clack WS-1 E series backwashing valve and a mid-tank Enpress Vortex design, which separates different media layers for optimal flow, regeneration, and filtration efficiency.

System Design & Media Layers

• Bottom Layer: 1.5 Cubic Feet of Purolite SST-60 Resin

• A high-capacity softening resin also formulated to remove dissolved iron
• Supports longer service cycles for households with greater water demands
  ‍

• Top Layer: Custom Iron Removal Blend

• 3/4 cubic foot of Katalox Light: For iron, manganese, and hydrogen sulfide
• 4 pounds of KDF-85 media: For heavy metals, chlorine, and bacteria control

This layered approach ensures dual protection and more robust performance in areas with extreme water challenges.

Includes: 6 bags of salt and customized programming for 16 GPG hardness level
