Report your leaks to us

With the announcement that the municipality has implemented water restrictions, the City Times will keep extra watch on unnecessary water wastage in Benoni.

Do you know of water leaks that have been a problem for longer than the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality’s 48-hour turnaround time to repair leaks?

If so, email your reference number, location of the leak, when it was first reported along with your name and surname and contact number, to benonicitytimes@caxton.co.za

These complaints will be channelled to the EMM spokesperson for comment.

You can also Tweet us with the #SaveBenoniWater.

Here are some tips to reduce your water consumption, lifted off the www.forloveofwater.co.za website:

•Turn off the tap while brushing teeth, shaving or soaping hands

•Take shorter showers and use less water if you bath

•Avoid buying bottled water

•Sweep outside areas instead of hosing with water

•Use eco-friendly soaps and cleaning products

•Fix leaks at home and report public water leaks to the municipality

•Always use a plugged sink or bowl instead of a running tap

•Insulate hot water pipes to reduce time waiting for water to heat up

•Install aerators and flow-reducing valves on your taps

•Install water saving devices on taps, toilets, showers and sprinklers

•Install an instant water heater at your taps for immediate hot water.
