Today, some water pumping stations of the "Infoksvodokanal" branch continue to experience emergency and stabilization power outages. As a result, consumers are also left without water supply during power outages.
This is primarily about the residents of the housing estates "Tairova", "Lenselishche", "Zastava 1", "Zastava 2", "Slobidka", "Bilshowyk", "Mizhlymanya".
In order to solve this situation and provide consumers with water during power outages, modern diesel generators were installed at a number of pumping stations of the water utility, wherever the capacity allows.
However, the use of autonomous power sources does not guarantee round-the-clock water supply, which the consumers of "Infoksvodokanal" are used to, and raises the question: why does the water constantly disappear for an hour. This is explained by the technological conditions of operation of the pumping stations themselves. Any equipment shutdown, after even a short-term blackout, and transferring it to backup power from the generator takes some time. The pumping station restarts, and it also takes time to fill the pipelines around the city with water.
The same pause in the water supply occurs during the reverse transition from power from the generator to the main power supply.
Any deviation from technological requirements in this procedure can lead to emergency situations on water supply networks.
Therefore, we ask consumers to understand the situation when water does not appear immediately during power outages and the use of generators.
In turn, the employees of "Infoxvodokanal" continue to work 24/7 to ensure that the city is constantly supplied with water.
