Water Supply Interruption Planned in Kópavogur
If you live in Lindahverfi, Smárahverfi, Digranes, or Kársnes, tonight is one to plan ahead for. Maintenance work on Arnarnesvegur means your cold water supply is going off, and it’s worth sorting a few things out before it does.
The shutdown starts at 10 PM and water is expected to be back on by 6 AM the following morning.
Kópavogslaug will close early at 9:30 PM because of this and won’t reopen until 10 AM tomorrow.
The practical advice from officials: fill a few buckets for toilet flushing and keep some bottled water on hand for drinking and cooking. Once service is restored, it’s also a good idea to clean the filters in your kitchen taps and water inlets so everything flows properly when pressure returns.
One more thing to be aware of — if your home has a heat exchanger, you may find you’re without hot water during the outage as well.
Kópavogsbær thanks residents for their patience while the work is carried out.
