The cooking recommendation applies from Wednesday at 4 p.m. and until further notice. This means that all water that goes into the mouth must first be boiled, according to the Water and Wastewater Agency. This applies to water that is to be drunk, but also water that is, for example, used in coffee machines, for ice cubes with or for brushing teeth. The reason why people are asked to boil their water is that local contamination has been recorded in water samples from the area, the municipality writes on its website. People are notified by SMS and/or email.
