Anti-Corrosion Engineering Co. Water Treatment Apparatus
agulite--just sufficient to coagulate the particles of rust, thus insuring clear water.
In small supply systems designed to operate at low velocities, no further ap paratus is required to produce non-cor rosive water. In the case of large build ings in which sudden peak loads may occur, this, apparatus is used in conjunc tion with a filter. Anti-corrosion filters are especially designed for use on hot water and have, a very low internal re sistance.
The apparatus is generally located, in the basement near the hot water heater. It is connected to the sewer lines so that the deactivating tank and the filter can be blown off and washed out as required.
The Deoxidizing Deactivator can be used with steam, coal or gas as the source of heat. Modifications of this apparatus can be had to meet any condi tion.
Specifications, capacities, dimensions, weights, etc., will be provided upon re quest.
How To Estimate Hot Water
For Buildings
Allow per H. W. fixture per day--For apartments, 25 gallons for high class, 20 gallons for medium class,' and 15 gallons for tenements. For transient hotels, 60 to 80 gallons. For apartment hotels, 40 to 50 gallons. For institutions, 50 to 75 gallons. For offices with private basins in rooms, 15 to 20 gallons; and for offices without private basins in rooms, 40 to 50 gallons.
Allow for maximum hour demand in percentage of daily consumption, TO per cent, for apartments, apartment hotels, institutions and offices, and 7 per cent, for transient hotels.
Add for laundries one gallon per piece of laundry, and for kitchens one gallon per maximum hour per person served.

Soft Water for Every Purpose
A Permutit Water Softener will give your clients a bountiful supply of spark ling soft water for any purpose, either personal or industrial, no matter how hard and unsatisfactory the available supply is.
Size
A Permutit Water Softener is a metal
shell or tank, containing Permutit mater
ial, that is connected into the house sup
ply line. It is offered in two sizes and
six styles, which give an unlimited range
of capacities according to the hardness
of the water and quantity to be softened. Largest size requires 3'rO" x 6'-6" floor space and 6'-G" head room. Smallest size 2'-0" x 5'-6" floor space and 6'-0" head room. This includes necessary room for operation.
Regeneration
Softeners may be located in the base ment or any other convenient spot, and can be connected into the water supply line by any plumber. They are usually placed directly in the main feed line with a simple by-pass arrangement of valves.
