I LIVE in the Tottington area, and over the last couple of months have noticed a substantial drop in the water pressure in my taps.
I have had United Utilities engineers out twice to check the pressure, and both times they have assured me that the pressure is above the level required by OFWAT.
This might be so, but it is still much lower than it was two months ago, and I believe the reason United Utilities have reduced the pressure is to save water that is being lost through leaks, rather than mend the leaks they have chosen the cheapest option, with complete disregard to householders affected.
I advise anyone who experienced similar problems to write to the following address without delay and demand that the water pressure be restored to its former level: United Utilities, Dawson House, Great Sankey, Warrington, WA5 3LW.
Or alternatively e-mail (but letters would be better) www.unitedutilities.com A MIDGLEY Tottington
