NWS 120K Meter System w/Bypass & 2450BT

The NWS 120K Meter System with Bypass and 2450BT from Water Softener Plus is a high-capacity, demand-initiated water softener built around the trusted Nelsen Water Solutions platform. Rated at 120,000 grains, it is sized for homes with significant water usage or high hardness levels, delivering soft, scale-free water on a metered, efficiency-minded schedule that conserves salt and water.

What's Included

This complete system pairs a Nelsen Water Solutions metered control valve with a durable black polyglass mineral tank, a bypass valve, a stack distributor, and standard mesh softening resin. The metered valve tracks your actual water consumption and regenerates only when needed, conserving both salt and water compared with simple timer-based units that regenerate on a fixed clock regardless of use. The included bypass valve lets you isolate the softener for service while still supplying water to the home.

• 120,000 grain capacity for high-demand households
• Nelsen Water Solutions metered control valve
• Durable black polyglass mineral tank
• Includes bypass valve and stack distributor
• Charged with standard mesh softening resin
• 1" composite valve for strong flow capacity

A demand-initiated metered softener works by counting gallons used and triggering regeneration based on the resin's remaining capacity, which keeps efficiency high regardless of fluctuating household usage. As hard water passes through the resin bed, calcium and magnesium are exchanged for sodium, leaving the water soft, and a periodic brine regeneration restores the resin's capacity. The 1" composite valve supports robust flow rates suited to larger homes with multiple bathrooms and appliances. Please note that plumbing connections are chosen separately to match your installation, and that this substantial system weighing nearly 225 lbs requires appropriate placement and support. Backed by Water Softener Plus and the Nelsen brand, it delivers dependable, high-capacity hardness removal.

With routine salt refills and the occasional resin or seal check, a quality metered softener like this can deliver soft water for many years. For homes with hard water and high usage, the 120,000 grain capacity means longer intervals between regenerations and more consistent performance, protecting plumbing, water heaters, and fixtures throughout the house. For a large, hard-water home, this complete metered system offers a dependable, efficiency-minded path to soft water that protects the whole plumbing system.
