Customers may also notice trapped air in their plumbing, which will be released as they initially use water.
Affected customers are asked to take any and all precautions necessary to protect the customers’ property and facilities including, but not limited to, disabling electrical power to pumps and/or any other devices whose normal operation may be dependent on water pressure and/or water supply, and which might be harmed if automatically energized during the water shut-off.
Customers with questions may call Mr. Carl Nishimura, South Hilo District Supervisor at 808-961-8790.
