Project 13-1347H3 - September 13, 2023 update

Street affected: Pierre Place.

Peel Region will be improving the water system by increasing the water pressure in the pipes on Pierre Place. The purpose of this construction work is to maintain, improve and plan for future growth of existing water services as part of the Region’s service commitment to provide safe, clean drinking water.

Your water pressure will increase between 5pm and 6pm on Wednesday, September 20, 2023, and you will see a difference in the water flowing from your taps.

Higher pressure and your plumbing

You are responsible for the water pipes and plumbing fixtures on your property and in your home. If your plumbing was correctly constructed and inspected and is in good condition, you should have no concerns.

If your plumbing is not in good condition, you may notice:

• Banging or noisy water pipes when turning faucets on or off,
• Spitting from the water faucet aerator when water is turned on,
• Leaking faucets or running toilets.

If you have any concerns about your plumbing, we recommend you call a licensed plumber.

Low-flow fixtures

When you had lower pressure, you may not have been able to use low-flow fixtures. With increased pressure, you will find changing to low-flow toilets, showers, or tap aerators will save both water and money.

Water interruptions

We should not have to interrupt your water supply to complete this work, but if we must shut off your water because of an emergency, we will notify you and do everything we can to fix the problem as quickly as possible.
