hose pipe ban

Anyone heard or read about a hose pipe ban from feb 2008, are we short of water? since we just had the wettest summer ever, will it effect pressure cleaners? can anyone help? thanks dezza.:)

Re: hose pipe ban

i dont think its a blanket ban only
certain counties
cant wash windows with a hose pipe
so these new reach and wash window cleaners
will be hit

Re: hose pipe ban

I understand that they have just extended the range of any future ban, e.g. window washing etc, IF water restriction is imposed in future - but none in force right now or pending

Re: hose pipe ban

A member on one of the reach and wash forums i go on is seriously thinking of taking the water company he's with to court over this regarding millions of gallons PER DAY the lose through leakages.

BTW, the hose pipe ban should NEVER affect us in the NW because of the amount of water running beneath us and under the pennines.

Failing that, I could have a bore-hole drilled(£10,000) and charge fellow reach and wash users to fill up.
