project
What is it?
We were tasked with creating a new brewery in downtown Boise, Idaho That was focused on sustainability. is that it?
No... In addition to the 10,000 SF brewery floor, we also had to include
A beer Garden (15,000 SF)
A Tasting Area (3,000 SF)
A Restaurant (5,000 SF)
A Coffee Shop (2,000 SF)
All Together:
= 42,000 SF as a rough estimate

Step 5 - Spindown Filter
Returning Potable Water Back Into Potable Water
The Spindown Filer uses the momentum of the water to “fling” particles out of the stream, which settle in the bottom of the filter. The spin down gets easily rinsed through the bottom valve, can be back-flushed, and used over and over again.

Step 6 - Filter Canister

Filter Canisters help your ceramic filter (next layer) stay clean, but need to be changed regularly, depending on filter size and input quality.

Step 7 - The ceramic filter
Returning Potable Water Back Into Potable Water
The ceramic filter puts a great clean finish on your potable water setup. It should be filtered to 5 microns before entering to help it stay clean longer (less cleaning means less chances of breaking the ceramic candles).
