South East Water (Sew) has warned its customers in Sussex that the reservoir level is very low after the recent spate of hot weather, which means Hospipe Ban it was introduced in parts of county and Kent last month Is ready to live in place.
And, while the southern water has so far imposed such restrictions on its consumers in Kent, it is also “asking” to “Betting” in more than 100 years “to combat the effects of dry spring.
Suggestions include not washing cars, avoiding “fully flushing” toilets and bathing in less than four minutes.
While cleaning your teeth, closing the tap and re -using rainwater to go to the garden was other options.
A chest spokesperson said: “Our surface water reservoirs, archingly and arlington are an important source of water and are falling more quickly and more than ever.
“Most of them are taken from the rivers nearby, whose flow is much less than normal due to many heatwaves.
“Since the drought of 2022, the reservoirs have not been reduced in this time of the year and with hot weather, we are asking people that people protect resources and use water around the house only for the necessary purposes – that is, drinking, washing and cooking.”
He said that the company “carried forward dramatically” by the company, on which it costs £ 40m in a year.
Southern Water said that it had reduced by 20% in the previous year and is using “smart techniques, drones and even specially trained dogs to smell hidden problems in rural areas”.
This explained that most of the water of Kent comes from deep underground natural shops, which is better than other parts of Britain, still lower than normal.
Therefore, while the firm is working to “build the first new reservoir of the UK in more than 40 years and” working to “the country’s first water recycling plant”, it was asked that the residents saved the water how they can do and “tap flow”.
