- Summary:
- Water professionals know much about the problems caused by internal pipe corrosion: water quality degradation, customer complaints, reduced pipe capacity, and home plumbing failures. Surprisingly, however, there is little practical guidance available to public water systems regarding the design, implementation, and maintenance of an ongoing internal corrosion control program. That is what prompted the publication of this AWWA manual of water supply practices. With this practical manual, you'll know how to control internal corrosion in metal pipes and plumbing pipes, ensure compliance with the USEPA's Lead and Copper Rule, and provide the best water quality to your water customers.
