Is there a way to "reset" water age, our surrogate for water quality, at a chlorine booster station?

Because there is no simple method to truly develop a Water Quality model – jar tests, wall decay, variability of temperature, demand and season make this arduous. We use water age as a surrogate for water quality.  This has worked well.

 

However, we recently installed a PAX-RCS system which allows us to “refresh” the chloramine levels and in effect reset the water quality. In the model, we are not able to “refresh” the water age by including some type change at our tank.  This would be a nice feature.

 

My alternative may be to create a generic constituent model, where I could reset the water quality.

 

If there is another method – please let me know.
