Gauteng residents have been urged to comply with the stage 2 water restrictions to avoid their taps from running dry.
Early in October Rand Water gave notice to Gauteng residents to reduce water usage and they ask residents to;
Only flush toilets when necessary Flush with greywater Take short, stop-start showers Use cups for brushing teeth and shaving rather than free-flowing taps Catch shower water to use when flushing toilets Only wash what is absolutely necessary Only wash full loads of washing and dishwashers Clean outdoor surfaces with a broom rather than a hosepipe Do not use municipal drinking water for pools, ponds, or water features Cover pools to restrict water evaporation.
