Re: Water softeners for the maintenance building and administrative offices
Dear pon,
Thank you for the opportunity to quote the water conditioning needs for the City Of Orono. Our
water test shows that the water has very little iron,but is 15 grains hard. Our quote is based on the
hardness and service needed as follows:
Administration office uses 90,000 gallons of water per quarter(1,000 gallons per day). We
recommend the model#FAF150-1.5540. This is a commercial water softener with a 24"x 50"
tank. The unit is sized with 1 %2" input/output valves so the flow will not be restricted. The unit's
flow rate is 43 GPM. This is a metered unit, which means that the unit will automatically
regenerate after the designated gallons of water has been used. The number of gallons of water
available for use before regeneration is determined by the hardness and iron content of the water.
Based on the city's water usage and the result of our water test for iron and hardness,this unit will
be set to regenerate every 6 days. This softener regenerates at 2 AM after the predetermined gallons
have been used. Please note that there is also a 1 day reserve of soft water, so the city should never
run out of soft water. T.L. Stevens Well Company will also deliver salt on an as-needed basis.
Simply give us a call. The price of this unit including t�and installation is $3,559.26 �
Maintenance building uses 23,000 gallons of water per quarter(300 gallons per day). We
recommend the model#FAF60-1.SS40. Specifications for this unit are the same as the above,
except the flow rate is 36 GPM and the tank size is 14"x 50". Based on usage and water test
results,this unit would regenerate every 9 days and has 1 %2 day soft water reserve. The price of
this unit including tax and installation is $2,540•97.
If you have any questions, would like further information or would like to schedule installation of
the units,please feel free to call me anytime. � �� �
