Water utilities are currently facing challenges ranging from population growth to climate change, identifying their strengths, and improving the efficient management of their services, mainly in the scheme for managing real water losses; having an impact on the economic aspect, and preserving water sources.

This work determines the baseline water volume losses in a newly constructed subdivision, and thus obtain the volumes that can be recovered and the physical efficiency that can be maintained through control actions.

For which they are analysed with the methodology of water losses, being the performance indicators for water supply services of the IWA, together with the research of Allan Lambert, director of "Leakssuite Library Ltd", and collaborator of the group of specialists in water losses of the IWA.

The infrastructure leakage index ILI, with values of 1.7 at the beginning of the study period, and up to 5.7 in the hottest month, reflect the ILI classification of the World Bank Institute, placing them in very low water losses, to high water losses; and in turn, in the last month of the period the index recovers to a value of 4.0, which indicates medium water losses, which coincides with a significant reduction in existing losses, improving leakage control and infrastructure management, evidencing the increase in physical efficiency with low ILI values.
