something abt water tank repair.

today we having a water tank being repaired in blk j, few days ago the office has put up the notice for that, then MC members received some calls from residents, "will this one real repair?", "do we need to keep some water?", "not fake one, huh?", etc....

at first we were a bit amused when heard "fake one?", when checked with them why they said "fake one", then we understand.

they told us few times when they saw the similar notices in the past, they did keep some water as water supply interruption were expected, but at the end water came as usual, so they concluded that there's no water tank repair.

the same goes to the water tank repair at blk k, even one time a resident question one MC member from blk k, "how come u put up the notice but then no repair carried out, what am i going to do with the water i keep in the pale?"

actually almost every time when the notice is up, the repair is happening according to the date stated in the notice, (except 2 times as i can remember, because of bad weather), but we managed to find way for the water to be sent from the other tank to the effected unit, to make sure that the interruption will be minima, to the extent that residents can't even feel the effect of it.

it just simple trick here, our piping at the roof top for all the water tank is so "canggih" that we can interconnect it so that when one tank is shut, at least another tank will rescue the situation...

but it doesn't mean that our residents don't need to keep some water, we still encourage residents to keep few pales of water for few reasons, first is for in case the "rescuer tank" doesn't have enough water to supply as now it has more units to support, although it's unlikely to happen, but it's always good to play safe.

another reason is more critical for those residents who do have water filter (either internal or external one), normally after a water tank undergo repair, the water quality will not be as good as the usual one, sometimes it's more visible in yellowish, sometimes not so visible but as u fill a pale full, then u can see more clearly that is not that good, & this will last for few hour.

let's be thankful that the good piping has enable residents to enjoy the continual water supply during the repair, but if in case the interruption does happen, pls don't scold the MC members or office staffs, for they also try their best to make sure the benefit of residents are being taken care of....:)

thanks.
