HISTORY

Ancient age : 

During the Neolithic, man dug the first permanent water wells, from where vessels could be filled and carried by hand. Ancient age

Middle and early modern age : 

Pail closets, outhouses, and cesspits were used to collect human waste Middle and early modern age

Current development : 

During the beginning of the 21st Century, especially in areas of urban and suburban population centres, traditional centralized infrastructure have not been able to supply sufficient quantities of water to keep up with growing demand. Current development

WATER SUPPLY

Public Water Supply : 

Public water supply refers to water withdrawn by public and private water suppliers and delivered to users. Public Water Supply

Public Water Supply : 

Public water suppliers provide water to domestic, commercial, and industrial users, to facilities generating thermoelectric power, for public use, and occasionally for mining and irrigation. Public Water Supply

Home Water Supply : 

The water supplied to your home might originate from a lake, a river, or from the ocean through a desalinization program. Water is taken from its original location cleaned with the addition of chlorine and then stored for later use. Many communities add fluoride to their water to reduce tooth decay. Home Water Supply

Home Water Supply : 

Water supplied to your home is under tremendous pressure, sometimes over 100 pounds per square inch. When you open or turn on a faucet, water pressure forces this cold water supply up through your pipes and out of the faucet. Home Water Supply

Home Water Supply : 

Water and contaminants leaving through the pipes of your home are sent to treatment centers. There waste water is treated to remove solids, odors, and scum. Ultimately, all the bacteria are destroyed and clean water is then returned to a local body of water. Home Water Supply

Identifying Types Of Piping Materials

Slide 15: 

Galvanized Steel Pipe. Use galvanized steel pipe above and below ground. This pipe comes in different lengths, and cutting may be necessary to allow threading.

Slide 16: 

Rigid Copper Tubing. Copper tubing comes in 10- and 20-foot lengths and is used only above ground. Types K, L, and M have the same outside diameter to accept fittings. The inside diameters for K, L, and M are different.

Slide 17: 

Flexible Copper Tubing. Flexible copper tubing comes in coils of 60 or 100 feet. Types of K and L can be used above and below ground. Both types have the advantage of bending with the use of a bending tool for installation.

Slide 18: 

Rigid Plastic Pipe. Plastic pipe comes in 10- and 20-foot lengths and is used above and below ground. Type PVC is used for cold water supply lines. Type CPVC is used for cold and hot water lines and is temperature-rated up to 180 degrees.

Slide 19: 

Flexible Plastic Pipe. This comes in coils of 100 feet and is used above ground only. Type PB is used for cold and hot water lines and is temperature-rated from 180 to 200 degrees. Type PE is used only for cold water lines.

Slide 20: 

Use the following to make pipe engagements into a fitting for threaded steel pipes, rigid copper pipes, and rigid plastic pipes:

Slide 21: 

Rigid Copper. Measure the distance from the end of the fitting to the collar inside the fitting

Slide 22: 

Rigid Plastic. Measure the distance from the end of the fitting to the collar inside the fitting.

Slide 23: 

The fitting dimensions for steel pipes, rigid copper pipes, and rigid plastic pipes are shown below. To calculate a fitting's dimension, measure the distance from the end of the fitting to the center of the fitting.

Slide 24: 

Local water tanks use gravity to pressurize water mains. The water mains feed water into homes, using the pressure created by raising such a large quantity of water above the level of the homes. How does Water Get to my House?

Slide 36: 

• Are you a member of the Better Business Bureau? • Do you have a Web Site? • What are your service rates? • Do you charge for travel time? • Are your trucks fully stocked, or do you charge for going to get parts? • Do you charge overtime rates, and if so, when do they come into effect? • Can you provide 5 references of clients who I can talk to?

Slide 37: 

Where does water come from? Water come from all over the Earth. The water that we drink goes through a process so that it is ready for us to drink. Water come from our lakes, rivers, and oceans. Water may come from a stream or lake, a deep or shallow well, or a reservoir which collects surface water.
