RESUMO

The use of alternative source of water in residential buildings has been practiced in more constant in recent years aiming to reduce the demand for potable water (drinking water). However, the use of non-potable water requires criteria that must be respected to preserve the health of users, with a view to possible contamination of potable water supplied by the concessionaire. Therefore, this paper aims to present requirements and performance criteria, which must be implemented in phases of design, implementation and maintenance of the non-potable water system in building. To assist the designers, performers and managers in decision-making of the different stages of the process was also developed and implemented analyze with the tool failure mode effect analysis (FMEA) for the requirements developed for the non-potable water system in building. The results achieved by the tool showed its applicability and efficiency in non-potable water system in building.
