Water restriction level 4 for Te Kuiti

22 Apr 2016, 9:25 AM

Te Kuiti is currently on Water Restriction Level 4.

This level requires that residents and businesses do not use water for non-essential purposes. This includes activities such as:

  • Washing vehicles,
  • Filling of swimming pools
  • Washing/ water blasting of building exteriors and footpaths
  • Using hoses for clean up
  • Irrigation of lawns or gardens

For quick tips to conserve water click here.

Check for water leaks in pipes, hoses and faucets and fix them right away. As much as 14,000 litres of water a day can be wasted through a hole the size of a small nail.

If you have a concern about a water leak on public property, please call our friendly Customer Services Team immediately on 0800 932 4357.

Your effort to conserve water and reduce water wastage is greatly appreciated.
