At any given time, some water points are offline for maintenance. Sometimes, the repair happens quickly. Other times, the repair is more complicated and takes longer to fix.
Our local partners and maintenance teams are focused on keeping water flowing, which includes both preventative maintenance and repairs.
We’re monitoring thousands of water points every year and the data we gather about breakdowns and repairs will drive innovations that make the water sector stronger and more sustainable.
