I'm in Horsham and everywhere has puddles, can't believe anyone is still talking about hosepipe bans.

Just tell him your a business and the ban does not apply to you while you use his water to clean the drive..

Our hose pipe ban is still in place from last year it’s not been lifted they are already having adverts on the radio about cutting water usage and showering for one muinit less to save 12 ltr of water ????

That’s what I’ve said to him he now fine but wanted to double check lol ?

Ffs it’s a shame sw water don’t fix the leaks quicker as they cause 1000’s letters of water to **** away because they can’t be arsed to fix them ?

We used to have 75psi from the tap which was great for me
To save repairing loads of old pipes 2 years ago they came and restricted the whole area with a valve to 35psi now out my tap
Maybe they should just fix the issues
According to viola as long as water can come out a tap on 3rd floor that’s good enough
Doesn’t take into account all my neighbours having issues with electric showers blowing up due to not enough water coming through them

I can turn my cold tap to fully open and it doesn't splash when I fill the dogs water bowl. It takes me 15 minutes to run a bath.

Think the legal obligation is to supply 0.7 bar pressure which is just enough for a gas boiler

Jeeez that is only 10psi

Just spoken to a friend who works for the water authority the minimum legal requirement is 1.0 bar enough to push water up to 10 meters head

I seem to remember a minimum flow rate at the kitchen sink but not sure if that was 'water board' bloke flannelling me

Fine I will. Can’t see what good 12 litres of water a year will do though ??‍
