Newest Golf Course Irrigation RO Near Completion

Water Treatment Systems,Inc, Boca Raton FL has delivered it's newest reverse osmosis water treatment system to Spirit Hollow GC in Burlington IA. The 500,000 GPD RO will provide a consistent supply of irrigation quality water for the golf course.

At times of low rainfall, which is an annual occurrence during the golf season in Iowa, the facilities back up source of water has been a brackish water well. At 2000 ppm TDS this water was detrimental to the fairways greens and tees.

The new RO system will provide a product water of approximately 100 ppm TDS which will then be stored in a natural pond. The blended pond water should reach approximately 400 ppm TDS before being pumped onto the golf course.

A new building was constructed over the winter to house the equipment. The Water Treatment Plant is expected to start-up around May 18th.
