A "power supply issue" arose this morning.
Water supply is now returning to Sallins, Clane and surrounding areas, having been disrupted following what Irish Water describes as a "power supply issue"
Cews were dispatched to investigate the issue this morning, and "worked as a matter of priority" to restore normal water.
Works have been completed and the water supply is returning, however, it may take 2-3 hours for full supply to return to all customers as the network refills.
Peter Thornton, Irish Water, added, “On behalf of Irish Water I would like to thank customers for their patience while we worked to restore normal supply as quickly and as safely as possible. We would ask customers to conserve water where possible and to only use what they need whilst continuing to adhere to public health advice on hand washing and hygiene regarding COVID-19. Simple water conservation efforts can have a big impact, such as taking showers over baths and fixing dripping taps where it is possible to do so.
