Abstract
The National Water Commission (CONAGUA), determined that in Mexico approximately 10% of the population does not have water in their homes. In addition, Mexico is the country that consumes the most bottled water in the world, although there are communities that do not have water for their consumption. This research proposed a drinking water distribution network coupled to a disinfection plant for low-income communities in Mexico. It was carried out using a mixed methodology, applying quantitative techniques to find out the number of people without drinking water service in Mexico and qualitative ones to determine the best option of materials, purification method and type of supply. However, certain parameters must be met in the communities such as the maximum number of 1200 inhabitants for this option to be viable. This research served as a base project for implementation in remote communities and that will be proposed to government agencies and projects.
