Following recent public concern and the circulation of images on social media about the state of the water in some public fountains, Manilva Town Hall wishes to state that the municipality’s water is completely safe and meets all required quality standards.
The Infrastructure and Works and Health departments, headed by Marcos Ruiz and Juan Carlos Morejón, asked the company Hidralia first thing this morning to carry out urgent monitoring tests on the municipal supply.
According to the data provided by Hidralia, the chlorine and turbidity parameters stand at 0.93 NTU, a figure well below the maximum limit permitted by current regulations, which guarantees that the water is drinkable.
The occasional appearance of cloudy water in some areas, as happened recently on calle Iglesia, is due to faults in the supply network. This is common during repair work and flushing of the system, and does not pose a health risk. Once this work is completed, the water quickly returns to its usual appearance and normal values.
