Autotrol Logix water softeners built on the Pentair 255 valve with Logix 760 or 762 controls — a metered, demand-regeneration alternative to Clack and Fleck softeners at a lower price point. Pre-assembled, free shipping, 5-year warranty. 760 or 762?
Both softeners use the same Autotrol 255 valve body and differ only in the controller. The Logix 760 is a demand (metered) controller: it counts the gallons you use and regenerates only when capacity is nearly exhausted, which saves salt and water. The Logix 762 adds the same metering with a more flexible programming set for households whose usage varies. For most homes on city water the 760 is the right pick; choose the 762 if your installer or well-water conditions call for custom regeneration settings.
Sizing works the same as any softener: hardness in grains per gallon × people × 75 gallons per day gives grains per day, and you want roughly a week between regenerations. Our water softener guide has the full sizing table. Comparing valves? Clack and Fleck options are on the Clack and Fleck pages, and the Logix line is covered by our Free Replacement Parts for Life program.
