Daily water interruptions for over a month in parts of Las Piñas, Bacoor, Imus
MAYNILAD / AFP
MANILA, Philippines — Maynilad Water Services announced that parts of Las Piñas City, Bacoor and Imus in Cavite will face daily water service interruption from June 28 to August 8, due to a maintenance activity in preparation for the Amihan (or northeast monsoon) season.
The Maynilad said in an advisory that it is set to replace the initial three of 14 ultrafiltration (UF) membranes at the Putatan Water Treatment Plant 2 to maintain “optimum filtration capacity.”
Maynilad then noted that this is only the first batch in replacing all of the plant’s 14 membranes, which means more service interruptions will be scheduled soon.
“After this initial batch of three membranes is removed and changed with new ones, we will provide an update on the next schedule of service interruption for when the remaining 11 membranes will be replaced,” said Maynilad.
“This activity is being done in preparation for the Amihan Season, which is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2023,” it added.
The water provider then urged affected customers to store enough water supply on times it is available, also reminding them to let their water flow out briefly until it clears upon the resumption of water services.
