WSP Softener Control Valve (WSP-CV-2815)

Your laundry's appearance and feel tell a story. Over time, colors fade and fabrics lose softness. Clothes may stiffen after washing, and linens might feel rough or look dingy despite your best efforts. This often comes down to how well your water treatment system is managed, especially the timing and thoroughness of the softener’s cleaning cycles.

The heart of your softener’s cleaning schedule

The control valve is the key component that runs your water softener’s cycles — it decides when to backwash and regenerate the system. Backwashing lifts and rinses the media bed inside the softener tank to clear away captured minerals and particles. Regeneration recharges the softening media so it can keep working effectively. The WSP Softener Control Valve uses a water meter to track your actual water use, so it initiates these cycles only when necessary. This helps avoid wasteful regenerations and ensures your system stays ready to soften water consistently.

How the control valve manages your water treatment

Inside your softener tank is a bed of special media that removes hardness minerals or filters impurities. The control valve sits on top of this tank and controls water flow through the media during normal use and cleaning. It features an easy-to-read digital display for setup and monitoring, letting you see system status and adjust settings without guesswork. This model uses the NXT2 digital control system, known for precise, reliable operation that helps maintain consistent water quality.

Suitable tanks and adaptable capacity

This control valve fits residential water softener or filter tanks of various sizes. While the exact tank dimensions aren’t fixed with this valve alone, we confirm the right tank size and valve porting when sizing your system. That ensures your softener or filter handles your household’s water demand properly without over- or undersizing. The valve supports moderate to high flow rates typical for family homes.

Matching the valve to your home’s needs

The WSP Softener Control Valve is designed for residential systems, fitting the typical water usage and plumbing setups of single-family homes. It works well for households that rely on a softener or filter to manage hard water or remove impurities but want a control that adjusts regeneration based on real consumption. Homes with very large water demands or special commercial needs might require a different size or system setup.

What’s included and the ordering process

This purchase is for the control valve only — the part that runs your softener or filter’s cleaning cycles. Installation is straightforward for a licensed plumber familiar with your existing system. Free U.S. shipping is included in the price. Once you choose your valve and tank size with our expert sizing help, you can order easily online and have your new control valve shipped promptly from Tampa, Florida.

Who this size is right for

This is a control head, so the size it suits is set by the tank it sits on and the service flow the house needs, not by the head itself. On standard residential porting that is a single-family home.

There is no published capacity figure for this item, so we size it from your water rather than from a table. Send your peak flow rate and a water test and we will confirm what you need - it costs nothing and it avoids buying twice.
