2023 Water Week Workshop #1 - Leak Detection/Monitoring and Pressure Management to Reduce Water Loss and Pipe Bursts

CEUs

0.3 CEUs

Description

Managing Water Loss in today’s water systems is a significant challenge for all Water System Managers. The need to supply water at adequate pressures for all types/demands of customers, as well as for fire protection is an ever-changing challenge. Adding the Financial and Regulatory demands that are now requiring water managers to do even more with less money, as well as reduce the water being supplied.

Pressure management and leak detection are key strategies to help achieve these goals. Managing water pressure can help save water, money, and reduce pipe bursts. Adding a leak detection and leak monitoring program will help save as much lost water as possible….. so let’s learn different ways to do this to meet everyone’s budgets.
