Written by Unfortunately Fife Council has went through the water main on Freuchie Mill Road whilst working on the Surface Drainage Improvement Scheme. This has resulted in low water pressure for residents in Freuchie Mill. As most of the properties will have a modern combination or condensing boiler, it is unlikely there will be enough water pressure to get hot water. Your heating system is a closed loop system so it should still be working without any problem.

Scottish Water has been out to assess the damage. A repair crew is currently repairing another burst water main down in Inverkeithing. They will be directed to Freuchie Mill Road as their next job, which will be at some point later this evening. Everyone should have normal water pressure soon.
