Potable water supply

Drinking water is our most important resource – it has a central meaning for the health and quality of life of human beings. Expectations regarding its availability, its freshness and its purity are accordingly high.
And it should be inexpensive.

Due to continuous regional dry periods – even in our Central European regions – it is becoming more and more evident that the availability of drinking water is limited. And also the required cleanliness of the water is unfortunately no longer the rule: increasingly it is contaminated. The location, preparation and distribution of clean drinking water is therefore becoming ever more complex.

The reasons for these complications vary from region to region:

- lack of local availability of water near the surface
- regional and wider-reaching impurities due to
  > population influences
  > unfavourable geological conditions
  > hydraulically complicated requirements
  > fastidious geographical profiles
