Thorpdale urged to conserve water
Gippsland Water is urging customers in Thorpdale to put off any non-essential water use.
This is due to a power outage which is impacting capabilities at Thorpdale pump station.
Customers can help to conserve current water storages by delaying washing machine and dishwasher use, taking a shorter shower (aim for 4 minutes), avoid using baths, washing cars, filling pools and spas, watering gardens and using high pressure hoses until further advised.
Customers can be assured their water is safe to drink.
To report leaks and bursts call Gippsland Water on 1800 057 057.
