Gotta love those Tanks
January 25th, 2009 AndrewDDue to a bit of a stuff up with the building of our place originally we plumb our tank water into all the pipes in the house – drinking, showers, toilets etc. And we also have a switch to cut over to town water. We have two tanks at 5000 litres each. If no rain then we can go for approx 3-4 weeks, that usually leaves 2000 litres left – at that point we usually cut over to town water.
So due to no rain since the last week December 08, and also having friends and family stay etc I had, last week cut over to the town water. Due to the massive downpour on Thursday and Friday our tanks were full again and so I had switched the house back to tank water.
Friday afternoon I notice a council vehicle dropping off something in the post boxes down our street, so I went and retrieved the paper from our letter box.
URGENT BOIL WATER NOTICE
Yes some disturbing levels of E. Coli have turned up in our section of Yass water.
As we have full tanks Yass water should have the problem fixed by mid Feburary (hopefully).
