Demand for water is exceeding supply capacity on most water supplies in County Clare. Clare County Council’s leak detection and repair crews will be working constantly through the New Year weekend (assisted by Contractors) throughout the County.

This number is to facilitate emergencies only such as leaks in the public areas. From 9.30am to 5.00pm please contact the Council’s main office number at 065-6821616.
The Council is aware that many individual households do not have water in many areas of the county. The Council is working continuously to restore supplies to all areas.
The Council appreciates the patience of the public in dealing with these shut offs. Without the shut-offs supplies would be even more depleted. Consumers can expect a delay in resumption of supply after water is restored at the time indicated while the mains are recharging for several hours. Furthermore, consumers on the periphery of schemes or on high ground can expect even greater delays in restoration of normal supply and pressure. In this regard all consumers are again requested to use water conservatively to ensure greater supply to all.
The supply situation is improving and will be back to near normal within 3 to 4 days with some isolated exceptions. The numbers of consumers who have limited on no water supply from the public main is now estimated at 800-900 households.
