Research Sheds Light on Age‐Old Problem of Meter and Service Line Sizing
A study by The Water Research Foundation (WRF) measured high‐resolution water demands in US buildings to reexamine and offer guidance on meter sizing approaches and building plumbing.
Incorrectly sized meters have significant implications for water quality and resource management in a time of reduced water demand resulting from long‐standing water efficiency programs.
The WRF study's actual measured peak flows indicate that all design curves currently used in practice, including those in AWWA Manual M22, predict flows that are likely to be higher than actual peak water demands.
