Mains water not working in part of the house

    All,


    I have an odd problem at the moment with my water supply..

    Currently (along with a lot of people) I have water restrictions in place by the county Council (Clare) - The mains water is turned off 8pm to 8am daily..This has been going on for about 10 days..

    However for the last few days , the mains water is only running in 1 part of the house all days.

    I have mains water in the Kitchen and Utility room at one end of the house , but no mains water in the sinks in the main bathroom and 2 ensuites at the other end of the house (it's a dormer bungalow) - The cisterns are also not filling at all. The odd thing is that in the Ensuite I have a mains fed Electric shower and that is running fine...

    Is there somekind of low pressure/low water level switch or something that might have tripped during a water outage that needs to be reset...

    When the water is on , the pressure seems ok - The fact that the cisterns aren't filling at all is a concern (The hot taps in all bathrooms work fine) - Cisterns are filled from the tank right? ..so why would they not fill if the bathroom taps are running...

    Appreciate any insight anyone might have

    Thanks in advance
