Thirty samples were collected monthly for six months throughout the drinking water distribution network; turbidity, temperature, electric conductivity, pH, total dissolved solids, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, alkalinity, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates and phosphates were determined; the physical-chemical parameters were measured using standard methods. The processed data revealed that the average values of LSI, RSI and PSI were 0.5 (± 0.34), 6.76 (± 0.6), 6.50 (± 0.99) respectively. The WQI calculation indicated that 100% of the samples are considered excellent quality water. According to the Langelier, Ryznar and Pukorius indexes showed that drinking water in Azogues is corrosive. The quality of drinking water according to the WQI is in a good and excellent category.es-ESQuality IndexCorrosion IndexesWater Drinking NetworkARTÍCULO10.1016/j.dib.2018.03.007
