The City\u2019s Water and Sanitation Directorate will be conducting zero pressure tests on the main water supply to a part of Constantia in Brommersvlei Road on Thursday, 5 May 2022, from 20:00 until 04:00 on Friday, 6 May 2022. This work will result in the disruption of the water supply to the area bounded by the Diep River, Rhodes Drive, Spilhaus Avenue and the Simon Van Der Stel freeway during this period.<\/p>\n
Zero-pressure testing is part of the installation process for pressure management technology. Tests are done to see if there are any unmapped inflows that need to be taken into account before smart pressure reducing valves (PRVs) are installed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Residents are advised to store water upfront in clean, sealed containers for use during this period and to ensure that their taps are closed to avoid water loss and\/or damage when the supply is restored.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The City regrets any inconvenience caused. However, this work forms part of the City\u2019s Water Demand Management Strategy. Managing water pressure more effectively reduces the possibility of pipe bursts and water wastage.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
