How are water pipes needed?
If we didn't have water pipes I would be out of a job. Water pipes are needed for delivery of the water to a specific place and that is done using pressure and flow using pumps or gravity. Most residential houses don't have domestic water pipes bigger then 1" in size. Almost all water pipes outside of a building are buried in the ground. Every time you turn on a faucet (if on city water) then you could be using water from a water tank many miles away.
