<h3>Householders in the Aghadoe and Milltown areas could face water supply issues for the rest of the week.</h3>
In recent days Irish Water has seen a noticeable increase in water usage across Kerry which has restricted supply to some customers including in the Aghadoe and Milltown areas.
Overnight restrictions will continue in these areas to help Barleymount Reservoir recover due to the increased demand and to maintain supply for homes and businesses during the day.
Irish Water and Kerry County Council are working together to address issues with&nbsp;these supplies. Crews continue to work on the ground to restore supply to those impacted.
&ldquo;With the temperatures dipping below -5-degrees in some areas this week it is really important to continue the regular maintenance of your property, protect outside taps and farm troughs, and check empty premises. It is also a good idea to familiarise yourself with your own internal water system and particularly how to turn off your supply at the stopcock so that you can protect your property in the event of a burst pipe,&rdquo; Oliver Harney, Operations Lead with Irish Water, said.
&ldquo;We also recommend that people don&rsquo;t run taps continually as this is not an effective way of preventing frozen pipes and can cause other problems such as frozen drains. It also puts further pressure on water supplies that are already challenged by the freezing conditions.&rdquo;
