“Are you on a joint or pumped supply?

 “Other households on your joint supply may be running a high consumption on that supply. If you have a pump to help water reach your taps then you should check that it's working ok as well.”

They apologised for any inconvenience caused, and that they would provide further updates when they have more information.
