Do Operation and Maintenance Pay?

Description:

Life-cycle costing can help planners estimate not only how much handpumps cost to install, but how much they cost to maintain. This article, published in article published in Waterlines Vol. 25 No. 1 July 2006, shows how it is done, and demonstrates that spending more on regular maintenance often works out cheaper in the long run.
