No baths and quick showers only in parts of Waimakariri this weekend

Residents in parts of Waimakariri have been told not to wash their cars or take baths this weekend, as work continues at a water treatment plant.

The request, from the district council, has been made to people living in Pegasus, Woodend, Ravenswood and Tuahiwi.

Householders have been advised to delay using washing machines and dishwashers and watering their gardens, because UV installation works at the Woodend-Pegasus treatment plant will reduce the amount of water available in reservoirs.

Residents are also being asked to take shorter showers.

UV light treatment is used to kill water contaminants, including viruses and bacteria.

A social media post by the council states: “Conserving water during this weekend will ensure that there is enough wai [water] in the reservoirs to cover all homes and to prevent outages.

“By delaying high water-use activities we can ensure that there aren’t any water outages to any of our community.

“Thank you for your understanding and your efforts.”
