This paper discusses a computer model (NET) developed by the author, which simulates the travel paths and subsequent water quality changes that occur as water distributes through a pipe network. By simulating various update options with the computer model, a rating of expected degree of improvement versus update approach may be generated. Two studies are presented to illustrate how this model can be used to rate upgrade options for a municipal distribution network (chlorine residual distribution) and a three story apartment building (lead build- up problems).
