While water has already been restored to most users in the above areas, householders and businesses are advised that full restoration of supply make take a number of hours.

Householders and Businesses should not leave taps open while awaiting a return of water as this will lead to further wastage.

Householders and Businesses are also strongly advised to check their storage tanks once filling has recommenced as sometimes the ball valves may not return to their fully closed position. If it is not possible to gain access to the storage tanks Householders and Businesses should check that there is no water flowing from their storage tank overflow pipes (these pipes are normally visible under the eaves of the roof). If there is water flowing in the overflow pipes then urgent intervention is required at the storage tank to prevent wastage and the possibility of internal flooding.
