Vicoland apartment residents take advantage of the opportunity to get water at building C3

On the morning of November 1, at building C of Vicoland apartment building (Vy Da ward, Hue city), many households gathered to get water for daily use from the mobile tanker of Hue Water Supply Joint Stock Company (HueWACO). Taking advantage of having clean water after many days of interruption, many households mobilized all the buckets and basins in their houses to get water. After the flood, the interruption of clean water supply from apartment buildings disrupted daily life, making the lives of residents here difficult.

Ms. Nguyen Thi N., a resident of building A, Vicoland apartment complex, said that since the flood, the buildings have not had clean water to use, making bathing and cooking difficult for residents in the area. The residents have reported to the apartment management board but have received no response. Meanwhile, the temporary water supply from HueWACO's tanker truck means that residents have to carry water in buckets and basins, which is very difficult to move.

According to HueWACO, after the flood, the pumping system and tanks of apartment buildings were dirty and had to be flushed or damaged by floodwater, leading to interruptions in water supply. The water supply company operates through the buildings' meters, so the water supply was interrupted due to the operation of the pumping system by the building management board.

HueWACO supplies water by mobile tanker trucks, temporarily serving people's daily needs.

To proactively respond to the water supply interruption after the flood of apartment buildings in the area, HueWACO has deployed a plan to supply water by mobile tankers, temporarily serving the daily needs of people in heavily affected areas such as Vicoland and Xuan Phu. Accordingly, HueWACO proactively mobilized vehicles and human resources, arranged a tanker truck containing 10m³ of water for each area, ensuring temporary domestic water supply for people.

Meanwhile, the representative of the Vicoland apartment management board said that the lack of domestic water in the buildings was due to HueWACO not pumping enough pressure. Accordingly, buildings A, B, C1, C2, C3 of Vicoland apartment building, domestic water supply tanks are located on the top floors of the 7-storey and 9-storey buildings. Of which, buildings A, B have dynamic pumps to push water to the top floors, the tanks have been cleaned and will have water on November 1; buildings C1, C2, C3 do not have dynamic pumps and water will be pumped to the upper floors by HueWACO. The company also has a direct water supply contract with households, not through the main meter of these buildings.
