Water Outage Precautions 1. Complete water storage at least 6 hours before the outage to avoid overwhelming the system and leaving endpoint users without water. 2. As reported by Feng Media: 'What to do before water shutdown? 9 plumbing device questions answered – ignoring these may cause fires!' Turn off water pumps, pressure booster motors, and electric storage water heaters before the outage to prevent fire hazards. 3. Users with water inlets below ground level should close the main valve before the meter during the outage to prevent siphoning contamination. 4. When using a hose, do not submerge the end in water to avoid siphoning and secondary contamination during outage. 5. Upon water restoration, open all valves to release air and restore supply quickly. Users at endpoints or high elevations may experience delayed water due to low pressure. If water remains unavailable after restoration, contact the water company for assistance.
