摘要
In 2004, a water utility implemented a five-year anode retrofit program to reduce the number of water main breaks and extend the service life Of its buried water distribution system. Data from 2004 through 2007 show average main break reductions of 50% in the first year after anode installation and >95% thereafter at <15% of the pipe's repair or replacement cost.
