About water distribution through mains, except steam and hot water (on own account)

cpc code 6921 covers the distribution of water through mains, excluding the distribution of steam and hot water. This industry plays a vital role in providing clean, reliable water to households, businesses, and other consumers across the economy. As a key component of a country's infrastructure, the water distribution industry is essential for supporting economic growth, public health, and environmental sustainability.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the water distribution industry involve the operation and maintenance of water mains, pumping stations, and other distribution infrastructure. This includes the extraction of water from sources such as reservoirs, lakes, or groundwater, the treatment and purification of the water, and the transportation of the water through a network of pipes to end-users. Advanced technologies, such as automated control systems and leak detection, are often employed to ensure the efficient and reliable delivery of water.

Production inputs

The water distribution industry requires a range of inputs, including raw water sources, treatment chemicals, energy (e.g., electricity, fuel) for powering pumping stations, and specialized equipment and machinery for the construction, operation, and maintenance of the distribution network. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, including engineers, technicians, and operators, to manage the complex systems involved in water distribution.

Production outputs

The primary output of the water distribution industry is the delivery of clean, potable water to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers. The water distributed through this industry may be used for a variety of purposes, such as 6922 Water distribution through mains, steam and hot water, 3600 Water collection, treatment and supply, and 3700 Sewerage, as well as for agricultural and other industrial applications.
