Interruption to your water supply- Harrow- HA3

Sunday 31 May 2020 - Monday 01 June 2020

Update 13:40

We have successfully restarted the booster and anticipate restoration of your water supply within the next 30 minutes, although this may be at a lower pressure due to high demand in the area.

Should you experience any discoloured or aerated water which is not uncommon following a mains interruption, we recommend that you leave a mains fed tap running for approximately 5-10 minutes. Discolouration of the water is caused by small particles of iron which are within the mains and disturbed during interruptions.

Cloudy water is caused by air that becomes trapped in the mains, neither of these are harmful to your health. To see more about how to clear discoloured or aerated water why not watch our short video guide here

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by this incident and would like to thank you for your patience.

Update 01/06/20 - 00:45

Our team who have looked into this have concluded that this is due to much higher demand for water at present due to the exceptionally hot weather.

We expect your water supply to be restored to normal pressure later on this morning. 

We are asking all customers to try and keep their water usage to a minimum during this time to reduce the demand on our network.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.
