Summary: A reliable and stable water supply is essential for fostering a healthy and conducive learning environment. However, the Technological University of the Philippines—Manila faces persistent challenges with its water supply system. This study aimed to evaluate the university's plumbing system through visual inspections and hydraulic simulations conducted using OpenFlows WaterGEMS. Employing a combination of diagnostic and action research methodologies, the study assessed water demand using both theoretical and actual approaches. It also developed an action plan based on the study titled "Mapping of Plumbing Layout and Performance Evaluation of Existing Water Supply System in Technological University of the Philippines – Manila Using OpenFlows WaterGEMS." Key parameters for evaluation included fixture-based and population-based demand, actual consumption, pipe specifications, water velocity, and pressure. Results revealed significant issues such as pipe and fixture degradation, high water demand peaking at 0.5 l/s, and inconsistent water pressure as low as seven psi, all of which contributed to an inadequate water supply. The findings highlighted the potential of additional infrastructure—such as storage tanks and pumps—to mitigate these problems. This study recommends that the Technological University of the Philippines—Manila adopt a systematic approach to monitoring, maintaining, and improving its water supply system. By leveraging the generated plumbing system layout and hydraulic analysis, the university can enhance the efficiency and reliability of its water distribution system.

A reliable and stable water supply is essential for fostering a healthy and conducive
learning environment. However, the Technological University of the Philippines—Manila
faces persistent challenges with its water supply system. This study aimed to evaluate the
university's plumbing system through visual inspections and hydraulic simulations
conducted using OpenFlows WaterGEMS. Employing a combination of diagnostic and
action research methodologies, the study assessed water demand using both theoretical and
actual approaches. It also developed an action plan based on the study titled "Mapping of
Plumbing Layout and Performance Evaluation of Existing Water Supply System in
Technological University of the Philippines – Manila Using OpenFlows WaterGEMS."
Key parameters for evaluation included fixture-based and population-based demand, actual
consumption, pipe specifications, water velocity, and pressure. Results revealed significant
issues such as pipe and fixture degradation, high water demand peaking at 0.5 l/s, and
inconsistent water pressure as low as seven psi, all of which contributed to an inadequate
water supply. The findings highlighted the potential of additional infrastructure—such as
storage tanks and pumps—to mitigate these problems. This study recommends that the
Technological University of the Philippines—Manila adopt a systematic approach to
monitoring, maintaining, and improving its water supply system. By leveraging the
generated plumbing system layout and hydraulic analysis, the university can enhance the
efficiency and reliability of its water distribution system.
