    Sustainable access to water is essential for the well-being of rural communities, and understanding consumption patterns is fundamental for efficient water resource management, improving water supply efficiency, identifying, and reducing losses, and providing useful information for future design and maintenance projects in water distribution networks. The experimental work started with the collection of data in the parishes of El Sucre, Los Andes and El Triunfo of Patate canton during an optimal period of time and through a non-probabilistic sampling by expert judgment the number of houses was chosen for the study, thus reflecting relevant data allowing the analysis of patterns and variations in consumption, As for the pressures, they were recorded for a period of 7 consecutive days of the entire sample under study, with respect to the hourly consumption, a control was carried out through the installation of cameras in the meters of the selected residences, obtaining the data for their respective analysis. Once the data collection was completed, we proceeded to the tabulation, determining the average consumption of drinking water in the sectors studied, which corresponds to: Poatug of 0.527, Matriz (Sucre) of 1.231, Los Andes of 0.580 and El Triunfo of 1.385 cubic meters per day. Regarding the pressure record, it was found that the study area is within the ranges established by the NTE INEN 1680 standard.
