We're working to restore supply to customers in Erris

Information below is relevant until further updates are provided here or on our Supply and Service Updates section

Uisce Éireann is working to restore normal water supply to homes and businesses in Erris following a power outage at the local water treatment plant overnight due to Storm Boelo. This has resulted in reduced treated water levels at the plant.

Customers in Erris and the surrounding areas may experience a loss of pressure or an interruption to supply as a result.

Uisce Éireann has assured customers that every effort is being made to restore a full water supply as quickly as possible. In the meantime, customers across the scheme are being asked to conserve water where possible while restoration works continue.

Uisce Éireann’s Operations Manager Colette Scahill said, “We understand the inconvenience of an unplanned interruption to supply and we thank customers for their support while our works continue. We are also asking customers to be mindful of their water usage and conserve water where possible to help maintain supplies across the scheme while we work to restore normal service.”

Vulnerable customers who have registered with Uisce Éireann receive direct communications from us for planned and unplanned outages lasting more than four hours. To register as a vulnerable customer or as an alternative contact, visit our Vulnerable Customers page.
