Sustainable urban water management consists of multiple interacting systems. This paper analyzes three such systems: leak detection, grey water recycling and rain water harvesting, beginning with a review of the literature and interest in these three topics. A proper sustainable system will use a combination of all three, and grey water recycling and rain water harvesting systems in particular have many synergies. The connections between water management and other related systems, namely energy, food, and economics, are then detailed, and the importance of such a holistic review is heavily emphasized.
