There is likely to be an interruption to the water supply to Parwich this week for ‘essential maintenance of the water main’ (Severn Trent ref Fcr 8344). The notice I received (on the Green) stated the following times:
- Wednesday 29th September: from 8am to 6pm
Do let us know (via parwich@hotmail.co.uk or in a comment below) if you have different days or times, and how large an area is involved. Not everyone seems to have got a letter. If your water is cut off beyond the notified times or you are not give 48 hours notification of scheduled work you may be entitled to compensation. Severn Trent can be contacted on tel. 0800 783 4444, for more information.
While the water supply is disrupted Severn Trent say not to try to use any mains water, including flushing toilets and hot water. So you will need to set up emergency supplies. One option for flushing toilets is to fill the bath in advance with cold water and then use buckets to flush the toilet. Do you have any other useful tips?
PS Be careful not to leave any taps turned on during the interruptions. In the past several local households were flooded as a result of this with the water coming back on at higher pressure.
We received the same letter at Pond Cottage…
Not recieved any letter at our house on Creamery Lane yet.
Nor us at Blanche Meadow.
