520 $aThis book offers practical solutions to complex water loss problems. With water costs and demand increasing worldwide at an incredible pace and availability decreasing at an alarming rate, there has never been a greater need for practical "hands-on" coverage of water auditing and loss reduction techniques. In "Water Loss Control Manual", an international expert examines every aspect of water loss and provides simple, effective, tested solutions. This highly visual reference includes coverage of: the nature and scope of water loss occurring in water distribution systems; how to assess loss conditions in any system by using water audit and computer models to identify losses; how to implement interventions to control real losses; mapping tools and techniques; leak detection, repair, and response time; managing pressures and pressure-related problems; pipe rehabilitation and replacement; how to implement interventions to control apparent losses; meter testing, repair, and replacement; billing system analysis and rectification; reduction of unauthorized use; demand control and water conservation; how to perform cost-to-benefit calculations; and field equipment.; Ideas and references collected from around the world make "Water Loss Control Manual" a particularly versatile guide, valuable in a wide variety of situations. Numerous tables, diagrams, charts, graphs, photographs, and basic explanations present information in a quick-read, easy-to-digest format and make the book immediately usable to all readers no matter what their level of expertise. If you're looking for a sound nuts-and-bolts manual on eliminating inefficiencies in water distribution systems, your search ends here.
