Here we have Water Serviceperson Rapata replacing a broken toby. Rather than turning off the water, he diverted the flow away from the affected house for a … View more

WHAT TO DO YOU THINK OF THIS?

Raymond from Tawa

The landlord had given due notice to the tenants, before the new laws came into effect.

But the new laws mean he cannot have his own house but pay for temporary accomodation.

Isn't this a case of applying a new law retrospectively?

Returning to work and school in Level 2

The Team from Wellington Water

With more people returning to work and school in Level 2, we wanted to remind people that since water hasn't been running as frequently through the taps, it's a good idea to run your taps to flush out the system when you return to work.

With more people returning to work and school in Level 2, we wanted to remind people that since water hasn't been running as frequently through the taps, it's a good idea to run your taps to flush out the system when you return to work.

When left alone in your pipework for an extended period, water can become stagnant and while it's still safe to drink, it may taste unpleasant, so it’s a good idea to run the tap for a while to make sure you have fresh drinking water.
