Our take on the Rust Out RO12N Water Softener Cleaner and Iron Remover 1.3 lb, 6 Pack

Rust Out RO12N is a powdered iron and rust remover for water softeners. It dissolves the iron buildup that coats resin beds, which normal regeneration leaves behind, and rinses out like salt brine. It also works as a general rust stain remover on fixtures, dishwashers, glassware and white fabrics. It suits well-water households with iron problems; unlike resin-bed cleaners sold as liquids, it is a dry powder dosed by the cup.

Pros
  • Targets iron fouling that salt regeneration leaves in the resin bed
  • Simple dosing: one cup to start, a quarter cup per 40 lb of salt after
  • Doubles as a general rust stain remover on fixtures and laundry
  • Powder dissolves in cold water and pours into the brine well
Cons
  • Heavily fouled softeners need the treatment repeated
  • Only 14 ratings, so the track record is thin

About the Rust Out RO12N Water Softener Cleaner and Iron Remover 1.3 lb, 6 Pack

Rust Out RO12N is a water softener cleaner and iron remover. It chemically removes iron and rust build-up that coats the resin beds and fouls a softener. Normal regeneration does not fully remove this build-up. The cleaner dissolves the iron in the mineral bed, and it is rinsed from the softener much like salt brine.

Removing rust and foreign matter from the resin bed increases the life of the softener and reduces rust staining on household fixtures and other surfaces. Regular use as preventative maintenance helps maintain the softening and recharging efficiency of the resin bed. A well water formula is also available for applications where iron is present.

It also works for general purpose cleaning on dishwashers, dishes, glassware, and white clothes or fabrics. For these uses, follow the directions on the back of the package.

Questions and answers

How do I use it the first time?
Dissolve 1 cup in half a gallon of cold water and pour it into the brine well, or straight into the salt tank when the salt is low. Then run a manual regeneration. Repeat for a heavily fouled unit.
How much do I add for maintenance?
Add a quarter cup for every 40 lb of salt you put in the brine tank. Regular use keeps the resin bed softening and recharging efficiently.
Will it help rust stains in my house?
Yes. Besides softener maintenance, it works as a general rust remover on dishwashers, dishes, glassware and white fabrics.
Is it a salt substitute?
No. It is a periodic cleaner for iron and rust buildup, not a replacement for softener salt.

Six 22 oz (1.3 lb) containers of RO12N powder.
