Water Distribution System With Dual Use Water Treatment Unit

摘要

A water distribution system having a dual use water treatment unit. The same water treatment unit can be used to treat water supplied from a fill port to a storage tank during a fill operation, as well as water leaving the storage tank for supply to one or more points of water use during a supply operation. When a diverter valve is in a fill position, water supplied to the fill port can flow through the diverter valve and to the water treatment unit for treatment then to the storage tank for storage. When the diverter valve is in a supply position, the water from the storage tank can be delivered using means for pressurizing water to the same treatment unit for treatment, then through the diverter valve and to a point of water use device.

1. A water distribution system comprising:
a water storage tank; a primary water treatment unit; at least one diverter valve; water conduits fluidly coupling a fill port to the at least one diverter valve, fluidly coupling the primary water treatment unit to the storage tank, and fluidly coupling the at least one diverter valve to at least one point of water use device; a diverter valve conduit fluidly coupling the at least one diverter valve to the primary water treatment unit; and means for pressurizing water in fluid communication with the storage tank; the at least one diverter valve being movable between a fill position wherein water flows from the fill port to the primary water treatment unit in one direction through the diverter valve conduit, and a supply position wherein water flows from the primary water treatment unit to the at least one point of water use device in an opposite direction through the diverter valve conduit.
