HE problem of a water supply for any building of large or small construction is an important one, as every architect knows. How to get an abundant supply of water delivered under strong pressure for fire protection and general service, is a question which requires careful attention. This water supply problem has been completely and satisfactorily solved by
The Rewanee Water System
The illustrations in this advertisement are reproductions from photographs taken at the Racine County Insane Asylum, at Gatliff, near Racine, Wisconsin. An elevated tank was first installed at this institution, but on account of the constant repairs, the inefficiency of the service and the lack of fire protection, the elevated tank has been taken out and the Kewanee System installed in its place.
The main feature of a Kewanee outfit consists in doing away with the old-style elevated tank, replacing it with
A Kewanee Pneumatic TanK
The Kewanee pneumatic tank rests on solid ground where it can do no damage. It is out of the way and is not an ‘eyesore.” It is made of steel and will last indefinitely. It is protected from all extremes in weather.
Besides providing every convenience of a city water supply, the Kewanee System furnishes absolute fire protection.
Over Five Thousand Kewanee outfits now in successful operation.
Every Kewanee outfit is guaranteed to give perfect service. Our engineering department is prepared to solve any water problem which may arise.
