1.	For planned maintenance work we will pre-warn you of the date and anticipated duration of the interruption. We will always endeavour to restore supplies within the stated period. However for burst mains it is not always possible to accurately predict the time of restoration.
2.	Bursts on small diameter water mains can normally be repaired in under three hours.
3.	A correctly installed and maintained standard central heating system will operate safely during the period of interruption but combination boilers will not work. We advise you not to use washing machines, dish washers or other devices running on mains water pressure.
4.	To determine if supplies have been restored, periodically open your kitchen cold water tap. Do not leave the tap open waiting for the supply to be restored, as this could cause flooding.
5.	Occasionally, on restoring the supply, you may experience mildly discoloured water. If the kitchen cold water tap is opened for approximately 20 minutes and it does not clear, please contact us.
6.	White, milky coloured water which, when placed in a jug, clears from the bottom, is air. Should this persist for more than six hours, please contact us.
