Description
The costs of internal corrosion of consumer plumbing systems can be significantly higher than the costs of corrosion of purveyor water transmission and distribution systems. A study conducted for the Seattle Water Department found that plumbing costs were ten times higher for initial capital and twenty times higher for annual maintenance than distribution system costs. In the consumer sector more than 80 percent of total costs were incurred in residential units, which should be the major focus of future water system corrosion cost studies. Includes 14 references, tables, figures.
