## Description

1 each – Twin Tank Water Softener System to include associated plumbing supplies, labor, installation, and deliver. Justification The existing water softener brine tank at Phoenix Indian Medical Center has reached the end of its service life and requires replacement with a new system to ensure continued safe and reliable operation.

Due to age-related deterioration, the current tank is increasingly susceptible to structural weakness, sludge accumulation, salt bridging, inefficient regeneration, and potential bacterial growth, all of which compromise softening efficiency and system reliability. Replacing the tank is necessary to maintain consistent water quality, protect critical hospital equipment, prevent unplanned downtime, and support uninterrupted patient care operations.
