Hosepipe ban, power washer, water butt, pump - X-post

No they don't. All water compnaies have to abide by the law which is the Temporary Hosepipe Ban provision in Section 76 of the Water Industry Act 1991. Using a hosepipe from the mains to drive a pressure washer for any non-vehicle cleaning purpose is legitimate under a "hosepipe ban" and none of the water companies say otherwise My water company is saying otherwise, at least by omission. And they call it a 'Total Hosepipe Ban'! nor can they. That's useful to know. I checked on their web pages a while ago, and the headline pages say 'you can't use a hosepipe'. The FAQ mentions nothing about other usage. I dug deeper and found a copy of the actual restriction order, and it's as you say. Thanks. -- The information contained in this post is copyright the poster, and specifically may not be published in, or used by Avenue Supplies, http://avenuesupplies.co.uk |
