Interruption to your water supply - Harpenden - AL5
Wednesday 10th September 2025

Your water is back on
We’re really sorry for the problems with your water today. We’ve fixed the problem at the pumping station and you’ll see your water flowing back to normal soon. You may still notice a drop in pressure during peak times.
Appearance of your water
If your water is discoloured or cloudy, don’t worry this is normal. We know it doesn’t look nice, but it’s not harmful and you can help by running your cold tap until it’s clear. To find out more, please click here.
