Kewanee System of Water Supply 



WHEREVER you see the Kewanee poster, there 

 you will find a dealer in Kewanee Water Supply 

 Systems. That dealer deserves your confidence, 

 because he sells a water supply system which 

 has proved its success by thousands of installations. 



A Kewanee System will supply an abundanceof water, 

 delivered under strong pressure, to all plumbing fix- 

 tures and hydrants. No city water works system could 

 be better. We know of no private water system as good. 



Thousands of Kewanee Systems are supplying water 

 every day for country and suburban homes, farms, coun- 

 try clubs, schools, public institutions, hotels, apartment 

 buildings and even towns. Kewanee Systems are fur- 

 nished in sizes and styles for any requirements. Prices, 

 from $70.00, up. 



Kewanee Pneumatic Tanks are the perfect pneu- 

 matic tanks. No elevated or attic tank to leak, freeze, 

 overflow or collapse — the Kewanee Tank is underground 

 or in the cellar. Water is delivered by air pressure. 



Kewanee Pumping Machinery— designed and 

 built for the exacting requirements of air pressure ser- 



vice—is in a class by itself — as far superior to ordinary 

 commercial pumping machinery, as Kewanee Tanks are 

 superior to leaky attic tanks. Pumps are operated by 

 hand, gasoline engines, electric motors, etc.— depending 

 on your choice and the local conditions. 



Kewanee Systems are made in Kewanee. As manu- 

 facturers of these plants, we are responsible for every 

 part of them. One shipment— one freight bill— one 

 handling at your end of the line— one guarantee— one 

 firm to fall back on. No complicated handling — no shift- 

 ing of responsibility. 



Have your local Kewanee dealer show you our com- 

 plete catalogues and'explain the Kewanee System. Tell 

 him about your requirements, so he can consult with our 

 engineering department and select themost satisfactory 

 and economical water system for you. We will guaran- 

 tee the results. 



If there is no Kewanee dealer in your town, write to 

 us. We will explain everything and help you solve your 

 water supply problem. Ask for our 64-page illustrated 

 catalogue, No. 16.
