Sewer flushing information

Information for customers

Your water service should not be interrupted during the cleaning process, but you should be aware of some potential issues.

Preparing for the inspection
• To help us minimise disruption to your service, please clear around any TasWater maintenance holes on your property to provide easy access for our personnel by relocating plants or other items that may be obstructing this equipment.
• Please keep dogs or other pets that may become agitated in a safe, confined area.
• Please keep all toilet lids closed with something heavy placed on top of lid when not in use during this period (even if you are not at home) as a precaution against spills caused by pressure variations when cleaning is in progress. In very rare cases, due to the layout of sewerage infrastructure or unknown blockages, sewer cleaning may result in a spillage.

These works are taking place so we can ensure your sewage pipes are clear of any blockages and are working as efficiently as possible.

If you have any special requirements please contact us. We thank you for your patience during these works.
