APUA warns of reduced water production at three reverse osmosis plants. The Antigua Public Utilities Authority shared the update through its Water Business Unit. Officials described the disruption as temporary.

According to APUA, separate operational issues caused the drop in output. Each plant faces a different challenge. As a result, daily production has declined.

First, electrical problems are affecting the Crabbs Reverse Osmosis Plant. Crews are working to resolve those faults. Meanwhile, mechanical issues have slowed operations at the Ivan Rodrigues Reverse Osmosis Plant.

In addition, one unit at the Fort James Reverse Osmosis Plant is offline. Unfavourable sea conditions forced that shutdown. Therefore, overall water output has fallen.

Consequently, some communities may notice service changes. Areas supplied by these plants could face shorter supply periods. In some cases, residents may wait longer between service days.

Because of this, APUA is urging preparation. Customers in affected areas should store enough water for daily needs. At the same time, the Water Business Unit encourages careful water use.

Officials stressed the importance of conservation during this period. Simple steps can help stretch available supplies. For example, residents can limit non-essential water use.

Meanwhile, APUA teams are actively addressing each issue. Technicians continue repairs at the affected plants. Crews also monitor the system closely.

Importantly, the Authority aims to restore full production quickly. However, officials did not give a firm timeline. Instead, they promised ongoing updates as work progresses.

Despite the setback, APUA thanked customers for their patience. The Authority also expressed appreciation for public understanding. Cooperation, officials said, will help ease the strain on the system.

Overall, the disruption remains temporary. Still, the reduced output may affect normal schedules. Therefore, residents should stay alert for updates.

For now, APUA continues repair efforts. The goal remains clear. Restore full water production as soon as possible.
