Samenvatting:

Microorganisms are most likely to blame if your plumbing system has: • Discolored water • High copper, lead or iron concentrations in the water, or • Holes in pipe walls. When these types of problems occur, someone gets blamed for them — from the plumbing designer all the way to the municipal water utility manager. But, everyone involved in a plumbing system’s development and operation can play a role in preventing the problems from occurring in the first place. That is why this booklet is written for: • Plumbing Contractors • Building Contractors • Insurance Companies • Developers • Real Estate Agents • Municipal and Private Water System Managers • Property Owners This booklet is a resource on microbiologically influenced corrosion for its understanding, prevention and remediation of the problems that are “bugging” your pipes.
