    Hi, We know that in many places a great portion of the "demand" is due to water loss and we also know that water leakage is directly proportional to the system's pressure. I would like to know, if you are doing and how you are doing to model water losses…

    Does the "gpd" unit represent thousand gallons per day? For example, if my node has an actual demand of 1,200 gallons/day would the demand read 12 gpd in WaterGEMS?
