Desing principle:
Water main's pressure must be great enough to overcome all local
and linear resistances due to friction in pipe length, wall
irregularities, number of fittings and net vertical distance traveled
while still delivering the required pressure at the remote outlet.

Task
Count the minimal pressure in the water main, that ensures proper
operation of the installation without using additional pressure
booster.
Steps:
1. Calculate the flow rates for the particular pipe segments
2. Size the water pipes
3. Determine the water pressure drop for pipe segments
4. Select a water meter and anti-pollution valve
5. Calculate pressure drop for the hydraulically most remote fixture
