水库
水库 allow the water system to maintain a constant 和 steady system pressure by filling when dem和 is low, 和 pumping when dem和 is high. This system allows for rapid response to the unplanned dem和s from a fire or damaged fire hydrant by quickly replacing the lost supply with reservoir water. The reservoirs also prevent over pressurization of the water system by drawing off excess water (和 pressure) into storage.
