Budget Price for a Water Treatment System

A request we frequently get via our website is "I need a budget price for a water treatment system to treat a flow of X gpm."

Our Answer:
Res-Kem welcomes the opportunity to help you size the water treatment system but we need more information than just gallons per minute to correctly size and select the type of water treatment equipment you need. Your needs may not be as simple as a water softener, activated carbon filter, multi-media filter, dealkalizer, RO, DI, demineralizer, or Service DI, etc. Your water treatment application might require a combination of these different water treatment units.

Here is a simple water process schematic of what we are talking about:


To help you, we like to have the following information:

What is the flow rate (gpm) you need from the water treatment system?

Is the flow 24/7?

Do you have an untreated water analysis?

Do you have a treated water specification?

Do you want the system to be manual or automated?

If automated do you want a electro-mechanical timer or PLC?

Are there any special requirements for the system? Your application or industry will give us an indication of your needs.

What materials of construction do you want? Depending upon the size of the water treatment equipment, we can provide units in carbon steel, stainless steel, polyethylene-lined FRP, galvanized steel, PVC, CPVC, copper, etc.

Do you want us to provide a turnkey tearout-install-commission price?

When do you need the system to be installed?

When do you need the quotation by?

Please contact us and we can walk you through the selection and sizing of the industrial water softener, activated carbon filter, multi-media filter, dealkalizer, RO, DI, demineralizer, Service DI, etc. or whatever combination of these water treatment systems you need to make the water quality for your process.
