Therefore for some demands we have to establish a sweet water supply. The easiest way is to bring sweet water from the shore and to fill corresponding tanks. Well, what kind of water do we need?

This chapter is divided into the following sections:

  • Drinking Water Supply for Consumption
  • Tap Water; rigid and flexible tanks
  • Raw Water Supply
  • Pressure Maintenance

Our extensive analysis and proposals are part of the design manual.
