Plumbing
USD building plumbing systems are sealed or closed-loop systems with treated water provided by the City of San Diego, whose tap water supply meets all state and federal health standards. While many employees have been working remotely the past few months, it is not the case that our buildings have been completely vacant or that building systems have been unattended. Facilities Management's building maintenance technicians have been working (and running systems) in virtually every building across the entire campus. As a further precaution, to ensure against the possibility of stagnant or standing water inside any building system, Facilities Management's housekeeping and custodial staff have been continually running water through the buildings by flushing every toilet and opening faucets at least once per day.
