Most of us are pretty good at or used to being as economical as possible when building a new water room whether that be by our own design or the design options offered by one of the vendors out there. If you could have the freedom to choose the best of everything out there, what would you choose? I'm wondering about Fleck Heads, chlorine monitoring, remote monitoring RO systems, exchangeable carbon tanks, bicarb systems, concentrate systems, down to dialysis machines and chairs. If you have a few moments, share what you like and why you like it.

I worked in a dialysis facility that had plenty of space in the water treatment room. The patient treatment area, tech lab, and offices were run of the mill, but when people saw the water treatment room, they praised it 100% of the time. It was beautiful.

For me, the ideal room would start with the municiple supply....
1. Tap water with a pH of 7.0.
2. SDI of 1 or less. (Does anyone even test this anymore?)
3. Hardness of < 1 ppm.
4. Municipality uses Free Chlorine and not Chloramine.
5. At least a 4" main supplying the building.
6. 1 1/2" hot and cold supply to the room.
7. Digital Fleck control heads.
8. 4" drain behind each component.
9. Dedicated GFCI outlet behind each component.
10. Aquaboss Dual Stage RO.
11. HD cameras that can be remotely panned and zoomed.

*****AND ENOUGH HOT WATER IN THE WINTER TIME TO FEED ALL THE SINKS AND R.O. ETC***** I guess we're lucky with hot water. Our largest clinic has a HUGE 190,000 BTU gas water heater that we run at 110 degrees that supplies all of the domestic hot water needs. It also feeds the 110 degree water to a 60 gallon 3 phase electric water heater set at 140 degrees that feeds nothing but the water system. Two clinics have dedicated 120 gallon gas water heaters set at 140 degrees. One clinic has 2 60 gallon electric water heaters in series that supply everything for the building as well as to a 3rd 60 gallon set at 140 degrees that is dedicated for the water system. The last clinic has 2 wall-mounted tankless water heaters in series set at 110 degrees that supplies everything. |

We have two 60's but they plumbed it all screwy and there is no proper working recirc. Wintertime is the only time it's an issue.
