Water consumption in Kuwait reaches record rate

KUNA Tuesday, July 25, 2017

Consumption of water in Kuwait hit a record on July 14, with 475 million imperial gallons, a rise of five million gallons more than the same period in 2016, said the Ministry of Electricity and Water.

The ministry's Undersecretary for the Operation and Maintenance Sector Khalifa Al-Furij, made the statement on the sidelines a fair of the experimental project for rationalization of water in houses, being implemented by the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Science (KFAS) in cooperation with the ministry.

Al-Furij noted that the strategic stocks of water are "assuring", with about 3.9 billion imperial gallons, 97 percent of the total storage capacity.

The rationalization project, for which the KFAS has allocated KD 1.45 million (USD 4.7 million), includes fixing water filters in 5,000 houses in six residential areas identified by a ministry's technical committee, he noted.

Similar fairs will be organized in the cooperative societies in these areas, for people to apply for water filters.
Al-Furij stressed the ministry's keenness on implementing such vital development projects to rationalize the consumption of water, and power in general.

Dear Sir,
I do not think water is more consumed in Hot season because if you fill a bucket of water the water itself is so hot that we cannot have a peaceful bath
However in the cold season the water is very cold and hence there is electric utility is more consumption. However many locals are expats are travelled but still many are left in their houses and councelling to save water and electricity is to be done
Kuwait is surrounded by arabian sea . if you feel there is still more consumption in this summer season then
In this case please bring down the airfare passage less bring back the low cost airline ticket so that the whole expat family & labourers Kadema can afford to travel .
Also Please Notify to all people to keep their home Tap closed and bring out Humanitarian Values in media and newspaper . to Save water and electrictiy''
