Lancaster Water Treatment X-Factor Diamond Line IronSoft 45,000 grains Tank Water Softener with Bypass and Fine Mesh Resin
The X-Factor Diamond Line IronSoft series by Lancaster Water Treatment is a high-capacity, premium water softener designed to handle hardness minerals (calcium & magnesium) while also addressing moderate iron content in water. The 45,000 grain capacity model is ideal for medium-to-large households that need powerful softening plus additional protection against staining and buildup caused by iron.
🔹 Key Features
-
High Capacity Softening
-
45,000 grain capacity—suitable for families of ~4–6 people, depending on hardness/iron levels.
-
Removes hardness minerals to prevent scale buildup in plumbing, fixtures, and appliances.
-
-
IronSoftâ„¢ Technology
-
Uses fine mesh resin to improve the removal of ferrous (clear water) iron, which is a common issue in well water.
-
Helps reduce reddish-brown staining on sinks, tubs, and laundry.
-
-
Fine Mesh Resin
-
Resin beads are smaller and denser than standard softener resin, enhancing both softening efficiency and iron removal capability.
-
-
Automatic Regeneration
-
Metered demand-initiated regeneration—system monitors water usage and regenerates only as needed.
-
Saves salt and water compared to time-clock softeners.
-
-
User-Friendly Controls
-
Digital control valve with programming for regeneration cycles.
-
Easy-to-read display and simple operation.
-
-
Bypass Valve Included
-
Allows the system to be quickly bypassed for maintenance or when soft water isn’t required.
-
-
Durable Tank & Components
-
Fiberglass-reinforced resin tank with corrosion-resistant construction for long life.
-
Heavy-duty brine tank for salt storage.

🔹 Considerations
-
Designed mainly for hardness and clear-water iron removal. If water has sulfur (rotten-egg smell) or high manganese, an additional filtration system may be required.
-
Requires regular refilling of salt in the brine tank.
-
Fine mesh resin is effective but can have a shorter lifespan if water contains high levels of iron or sediment without pre-treatment.
