Client Challenge

Northpointe Woods, a senior housing complex located in Battle Creek, Michigan, called Besco Commercial Water Treatment, because they were in need of updating their existing commercial water softening equipment. This presented a challenge because of the space limitations that the facility had. The existing system was overcrowding a gated area that protects the electrical panels that the facility regularly utilizes.

Besco Solution

Besco engineered a “tri-plex demand recall system” that will automatically adjust to the fluctuations of flow rate demand that the senior housing complex has. As the flow rate demand for softened water increases to the peak level of one tank, the system will bring on another tank… up to three… to meet the flow rate demands that are called for. Besco Commercial Water Treatment demolished the existing system and installed the new system closer to the wall to improve space requirements for the facility. Besco then moved the salt storage tanks into an adjacent room and hard-plumbed the brine line to the water system. This move saved Northpointe Woods enough space that they were able to easily access the gated area without any obstructions.
