WSP Meter Assembly - 3"

This 3-inch meter assembly from Water Softener Plus (WSP) measures your actual water use to control when your water treatment system regenerates. By tracking flow precisely, it helps your softener or filter run only when needed, saving water and salt compared to fixed schedules.

The Problem You Face

If your water softener or filtration system regenerates on a set timer, you’re likely using more water, salt, and energy than necessary. You might notice the system starting its cycle even when you haven’t used much water, or regenerating too often, which wastes resources and shortens the life of some components. On the other hand, regenerating too late can mean your water isn’t being treated properly when you actually need it.

Why This Happens

Many systems trigger regeneration based on a clock, not actual water use. That means the system doesn’t know how much water has passed through it. Without accurate flow measurement, it can’t adjust its cycles to match your household’s real demand. The solution is a meter that counts the water as it flows, telling the system exactly when regeneration is necessary.

What It Costs You to Leave It

Regenerating on a schedule rather than on demand means you could be wasting salt and water more often. Over time, this adds up to higher bills and more frequent maintenance. Your water softener’s resin or filter media might wear out sooner because it’s running cycles unnecessarily. Plus, you may find your water quality fluctuates, affecting how well soaps rinse or how clean your fixtures stay.

How This Assembly Fixes It

This meter assembly fits into your system’s plumbing and measures exactly how much water is flowing through. It uses a stainless steel sensor that counts each gallon passing by. This data then signals your control valve to start regeneration only when your water use reaches a set amount. So you avoid wasting resources and keep your system working efficiently.

What This Assembly Can Handle

The WSP 3-inch meter assembly is designed for water softeners and filtration systems that use Fleck control valves. Its durable stainless steel construction stands up to corrosion and wear in typical household water conditions. The 3-inch size fits standard plumbing setups where a larger meter is needed to handle higher flow volumes. It’s suitable for homes or facilities with steady water use where precise flow monitoring ensures timely regeneration without excess.

What You Actually Get

You’ll receive the FL30M-SS 3-inch stainless steel meter assembly made for Fleck control valves. It’s a solid, corrosion-resistant unit intended to integrate smoothly with your existing system. Exact installation details depend on your setup and will be confirmed when you size your system properly.

Is This the Right Size for You?

This 3-inch meter is best for systems with moderate to high water flow that require precise measurement. If your system is smaller or serves a low-flow household, a smaller meter might be more appropriate. Conversely, very large commercial setups may need a larger or specialized meter not covered by this model.

Living with It

The assembly requires little routine maintenance beyond occasional inspection for leaks or buildup. Its stainless steel body helps reduce corrosion and wear, so you won’t replace it frequently. When your plumber installs it, they can advise on any needed upkeep. Its lifespan is typically measured in years, helping keep your water treatment reliable.

What It Won’t Do

This meter tracks water flow but does not treat the water itself or remove contaminants. It won’t fix water quality issues like iron, sulfur odors, sediment, or bacteria. For those problems, you’ll need a water softener, filter, or specialized treatment system designed for the specific issue.
