IFLUIDS ENGINEERING

Drinking Water Audit Service, India

Overview

A drinking water audit is a systematic evaluation of water supply systems to ensure the safety, quality, and reliability of drinking water. Serious health risks, legal infractions, and reputational risks can arise from failing to meet water quality standards, whether for government infrastructure, industrial campuses, institutional buildings, or rural drinking water schemes. According to Indian Standard IS 10500:2012, having access to clean and safe drinking water is both a public health mandate and a regulatory requirement.

End-to-end drinking water audit services from iFluids Engineering include source-level evaluation, infrastructure diagnostics, water quality validation, and regulatory compliance. Our approach and observations are supported by lessons learned from extensive implementation audits, including the CAG’s Performance Audit on NRDWP, and are based on national standards.

Our Service Offerings

Our drinking water audit services include real-time quality assessment, infrastructure diagnostics, and system surveillance. We benchmark against regulatory norms and identify gaps in water safety and distribution integrity. iFluids Engineering ensures sustainable, compliant water systems for long-term reliability.
