根據城鎮供水服務水壓的要求，按照國家住房和城鄉建設部《城鎮環境綜合整治定量考核實施辦法》通知（建成字第132號）規定，城鎮公共供水管網干線末梢的服務壓力不得低于0.14MPa。城鎮公共供水的管網壓力合格率不得低于97%（不含因水源短缺或不可抗力引起突然爆管事件，造成局部地區出現降壓斷水的情況）。
    也就是說，規定的供水壓力是保證在有供水管網覆蓋的中心城區4樓居民的基本生產生活用水，供水高度達到3~4層樓的高度，現在我市的供水壓力有些地方已經可以達到5~6樓。但是作為供水企業，我們保證提供不低于標準的供水服務壓力，不能負擔超過供水壓力能夠到達樓層的供水服務，這需要由樓房的建設單位或管理單位配套建設相應的二次增壓設施來保證用戶的用水需求。
