Mazarron Councillor to intervene in Camposol water pressure problem

Camposol Business Association enlist the aid of Mazarrón Councillor for Health and Camposol in water pressure problem

At recent meetings between the Camposol Business Association and Mazarrón Councillor for Camposol, Carmen Navarro, who is also the Councillor for the municipal Health Department. The association raised the issue that the Camposol urbanisation has for some weeks been suffering from low water supply pressure which in some case leads to no water emanating from taps at all and also water pressure being insufficient to trigger gas water heaters, resulting in residents having to endure cold showers.

The Councillor confirmed that she knew about the situation which was also affecting many other parts of the municipality and, although it was not Mazarrón Council’s jurisdiction, as the company Aqualia has the contract for the water supply, she agreed to contact Aqualia and press for a solution. She added that she had previously spoken to them about the matter and was told it was a result of a combination of low water resources, an increase in demand caused by the summer influx of holidaymakers plus a number of leaks on the supply network requiring repairs, although the company said the problem was expected to be temporary. However, the councillor said she would speak to Aqualia again from a health prospective to let them know the situation was causing hardship to some households were the water pressure was very low or sometimes non-existent.
