Water Softener Test Plans by Cedar Rapids Firm
The City Council heard a chemist from Mid-West Engineering Co. discuss tests to soften artesian water from a new well. They propose a 100000 gallon reservoir, a flush tank treatment with a safe chemical, and a 20 by 40 by 15 foot tank. The scheme aims to supply fire reserves and keep water flowing during emergencies.
