Termoenergetica crews have completed work to fix a 40-year-old main pipeline failure. Although the damage was repaired on August 19, the gradual re-filling of the network, which is essential to prevent new cracks, can take up to 12 hours. This affects the delivery of hot water to thousands of residents in sectors 2, 3 and 4 of the capital, who have been without hot water for three days. Termoenergetica apologizes for the inconvenience caused and assures that its teams are mobilized to resume the supply safely.
