Calgary's Water Crisis: Indoor Conservation Voluntary

Calgary Faces Water Crisis: Outdoor Restrictions, Voluntary Indoor Conservation Calgary is grappling with a severe water crisis following a major pipeline break, leading to stage four outdoor water restrictions. The city is urging residents and businesses to cut indoor water use voluntarily to avoid overwhelming the system. Despite the city only mandating outdoor restrictions, businesses like car washes and pools remain open, while residents are asked to limit showers, laundry, and dishwashing. Car wash operators, who recycle up to 80% of their water, are staying open, and rec centers are reducing services to conserve water. Checkout Solipillow.com
