The performance evaluation of an implemented water distribution network is in tight relation with the choice of adequate measures for water loss reduction.

This paper deals with the performance evaluation of water distribution systems based on the calculated performance indicators NRW and ILI. For this purpose, collected data for a period of one year from 12 Romanian small water distribution systems and two simplified average pressure determination methods were used.
