The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of using dual water systems to furnish high quality water for drinking and other home uses. Dual water systems are defined as those involving distribution of two grades of water to consumers through independent pipe networks. The study also included the development of comparative costs of complete water systems that employ conventional and dual distribution systems.
Dual systems that distribute two grades of water, both safe, offer a means of wise and efficient management of water resources and should continue to be explored.
