An Introduction to Water Supply Systems Operation and Maintenance
This online engineering PDH course provides an introduction to maintenance inspections and general maintenance services required at domestic water supply systems. It includes information about tools and equipment, lubricants, and materials and supplies required to perform general and specific equipment maintenance tasks.
Regular inspection of equipment is part of an operator’s routine duties to ensure proper functioning of the system. Such inspection includes lubrication, minor adjustments, and renewal of parts that do not require major overhaul or repairs. The operator’s inspection also entails detecting and reporting (to the proper authority) any abnormal conditions (appearance, leaks, unusual noises, etc.).
