What factors are related to pipe network leakage?

1. Pipe fitting material and pipe network aging;

2. The connection of the pipe socket is loosened due to the stress of temperature and water flow changes;

3. Valve problem;

4. Environmental factors such as pipe foundation sinking and construction quality.

How to reduce the leakage rate of the water supply network?

 As far as our country is concerned, in August this year, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the National Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention issued the "Notice on Strengthening the Safety of Urban Water Supply", requiring strengthening the construction and renovation of water supply pipe networks, and compiling the The water supply pipeline aging renewal and renovation plan, combined with the transformation of old underground pipelines such as gas, urban renewal, old Renovation of old residential quarters, renovation of secondary water supply facilities, and renovation of "one household, one meter", etc., speed up renewal and renovation, implement leakage control of public water supply pipe networks, and continue to reduce the leakage rate of water supply pipe networks. The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has asked all localities to speed up the pace of transformation of water supply pipe networks, and complete the transformation of severely aging and leaky pipe networks by the end of 2025.

 

 A few days ago, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the National Development and Reform Commission organized a pilot project to control the leakage of public water supply pipe networks. The construction content includes the implementation of water supply network transformation, regional metering, pressure control projects, and improvement of the water supply network management system. All localities are required to take the transformation of water supply pipe network as a key project and increase financial investment; cities in all regions must specify a certain proportion of maintenance and construction funds for pipe network transformation; water supply companies must actively raise funds to ensure that the funds required for pipe network transformation The construction progress of the project is fully in place.

 

Can water meter reading affect the leakage rate of water supply network?

 Establishing a meter reading ledger is the simplest part of the water management process, and it is also the most basic and important part. Analysis of water use based on the data on the meter reading ledger is the most intuitive reflection of whether the water use is abnormal, and it is also the most intuitive way to find pipe network leaks. It is the most basic and indispensable link to reduce the leakage rate of the pipe network and save water.

 

What is the relationship between reducing the leakage rate of water supply pipe network and saving water?

 Water conservation cannot simply be equated with water restriction. One of the goals of water conservation is to cultivate the concept of water management. Through the establishment of a water management system, use water and manage water reasonably and efficiently, discover pipe network leakage in time, effectively reduce the leakage rate of water supply pipe network, and reduce economic losses. Really put water conservation into practice.
