Water is always a problem on Cyprus, the weather is a clue with 340 days of sunshine a year you can see the problem, it gets worse with the dry winters of recent years, of course tourist use a fair bit too as many come to Cyprus for the reason of good summers, this year it will be dire and already we are having daily cuts..

how long do the daily cuts last??

How long? depends on your 'Muchtar' (village mayor) he decides...mostly ours is reduced pressure, it trickles out of the drinking water tap, all properties here have 500 galon water tanks on the roof, you may have noticed these, the fresh water also tops these up, so we always have enough water for as long as the tanks are full, they last a few days of normal use only..
