Plumbing not only is responsible for supplying water but it also takes away waste in a hygienic manner. In the recent times there have been a lot of advancements in Plumbing that lead to more efficient and sustainable water management. But the irony is that these advancements and best plumbing practices do not reach out to building industry professionals.

These new building structures will need meticulous planning and execution of all aspects of these built structures including Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing. Moreover, India has 18% of the world population but only 4% of the fresh water so we need to make emergent efforts to not only save water but also make use of the untapped resource of wastewater. Recycling wastewater and putting it to appropriate use will be a solution to our water woes. There needs to good amount of advocacy and communication on reusing wastewater. For this, moving towards Net Zero water and sanitary waste is the need of the hour.Need for Architects and Plumbing Consultants to work togetherThere is a need for architects and plumbing consultants to work together during the execution of any project. Currently, by the time the plumbing consultant comes on board, the Civil structure is already ready. We have found lot of problems in installing Correct Plumbing systems in many building sites. Gurmit Singh Arora said therefore, the entire building fraternity including the builders, architects, project managers need to be aware about the importance of plumbing. IPA conferences aim to increase awareness on the correct plumbing practices. 28th Indian Plumbing Conference in Pune will have a spectrum of speakers from across the plumbing and building industry who will shed light on Advancement in Plumbing for Built Environment. United Nations adopted Sustainable Development Goals in 2030. 5 Goals out of 17 SDGs are directly related to Plumbing.
