Water is usually distributed by gravity aided positive pressure.

If you’ve got a town at a specific altitude, the town water is held as high up as possible, even if it means you pump the water up. From there, when you open a tap, gravity pulls the water down to you.
If the high altitude water supply runs out, and you can’t pump any more water up, you run into problems without electricity.
