The analysis of the water use of the
different consumers is an important issue for the proper design, performance
and management not only for the water supply and sewerage systems in the
buildings, but also for the urban water infrastructure as a whole.  Water use changes with time due to many
climatic, socio-economic, cultural and technical factors and is tightly
connected with the development of the society and technologies. When the change
becomes substantial, there is a need of upgrading and verification of the
design parameters and methods, but also the construction practices and
maintenance requirements as well as the corresponding regulations, so that they
become adequate with current and future development. Analysis of the different
methods characterizing the water use in the buildings on quantative basis as
well as the determination of its seasonal, daily, hourly or shorter period of
time variation is made. The advantages and disadvantages of water demand
mathematical models are discussed and on that basis of that, a statistical
method for estimation of the parameters of hybrid stochastic-regression water
demand model is recommended to be used. The approach gives contemporary
theoretical basis of water demand on different spatial and temporal scales and
can be used for analysis of water consumption not only in the different types
of buildings but also in the settlements.
