The offer is valid today at the Suðurbæjarlaug on Hringbraut and Ásvallalaug, which are open until 8 p.m. this evening, and at the Sundhöll Hafnarfjarðar. It is open until 9 p.m.
According to information from The police in the South-West Around midday on Facebook, work is currently underway to connect the pipe that was damaged yesterday, and that work is progressing well. Provided nothing unexpected arises, water will start to be run through the pipe this evening.
The police say that water will initially be released very slowly into the new pipe to prevent it from bursting. However, it is expected to be damaged in some places. The police believe that homes in the South West will have hot water on Sunday, and possibly late on Sunday evening.
The Municipality of Hafnarfjörður sends its warmest thoughts to the residents of the South-West who are currently experiencing this uncertainty due to the seismic activity!
