Purified water is the most common reagent found in lab facilities, used throughout experimental protocols in virtually every type of application. Whether used for washing glassware, buffer preparation, cell culture or a highly sensitive analytical technique, the appropriate grade of water is essential to support research projects and maintain productivity. A well-designed lab water system can help ensure the success and integrity of research for all types of facilities, from the smallest academic labs to the largest research building. Designing a new lab water system or retrofitting an existing system requires a thorough understanding and working knowledge of common and emerging contaminants, purification technologies, industry standards, user requirements and water distribution options. This article describes key factors to be considered when designing a customized lab water system and outlines best practices for defining purity level and volume requirements. Options for water distribution design and equipment are also described.
