Chapter 8
The Future of Premise Plumbing Modeling
Publication: Premise Plumbing Modeling
Abstract
Advanced smart water sensors and technologies are entering water markets, including leak detection, smart fixtures and appliances, smart filters, and bottles, tap water quality, and irrigation. In this chapter, the future of premise plumbing and modeling are discussed. Specifically, this chapter covers the use of smart water sensors/technologies in premise plumbing, new developments in information management technologies such as Building Information Modeling and Digital Twins and stakeholder engagement efforts. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results; however, it is critical to look at what is happening now and extrapolate that into the future to discuss the future of premise plumbing and modeling efforts. In the last half century or so, information management in the general field of water distribution system analysis, design, and planning has evolved significantly. Integrating emerging information management technologies with smart technologies will lead to better planning, design, analysis, management, and operational decision-making in premise plumbing.
