Maynilad said it will deploy 30 mobile water tankers to the affected areas, particularly those that will have no water for 57 hours. It advised customers to store water in containers that have covers. Water stored in open containers should be consumed within one or two days. If it will be used for drinking or cooking, it should be boiled first. It added people can also freeze water and use the melted ice for cooking or drinking.
Maynilad will also conduct simultaneous maintenance works at its Villamor and Espiritu pumping stations. "We need to recover ‘yung ating water losses sa system in preparation sa summer," Maynilad water supply operations head Ronaldo Padua said.
