Rayne Iron Breakthrough / Inadequate Iron Removal

Rayne softener appears to work but leaves orange or brown staining on fixtures

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Iron level exceeds softener capacity, Iron-fouled resin, No pre-iron filter, Incorrect regeneration settings

Safety first: Iron staining is mainly an aesthetic issue but can indicate treatment limits.

1. Test iron level: Use an iron test kit or lab analysis to determine iron concentration.
2. Clean resin: Use an iron-removal resin cleaner through the brine well and run multiple regenerations.
3. Adjust settings: Increase regeneration frequency or salt dosage to improve iron removal.

When to call a technician: High iron levels may require a dedicated iron filter ahead of the Rayne softener.
