South East Water enforces hosepipe ban amid heatwave
South East Water has implemented a hosepipe ban in Kent, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, and Berkshire due to increased demand caused by a heatwave. The company supplied 644 million liters of water on June 21, exceeding typical daily demand, and warns that usage may rise further. The restrictions aim to maintain supplies, especially for customers on higher ground or distant network points. Other UK water providers are advising customers to reduce water use, but South East Water is currently the only company enforcing a hosepipe ban.
