Aguakan Maintenance to Bring Low Pressure, Outages to Parts of Cancun

Aguakan water infrastructure and storage tanks in Cancun ahead of scheduled network maintenance

Cancún, Quintana Roo — Water utility Aguakan has announced scheduled interconnection and maintenance work on the potable water network in the city’s catchment zone on Tuesday, Oct. 20, warning that some superblocks could see low pressure or temporary service interruptions.

The company said its own personnel will carry out and supervise the work, which it described as part of ongoing efforts to improve water infrastructure and strengthen the operation of the potable water system.

Once the work is finished, service will be restored gradually. Aguakan said crews must first refill the storage tanks to their normal levels before water can be distributed through the network to homes, so the time needed to restore full service will vary from one area to another.

The utility asked residents for patience during the work and said it will keep the community informed about progress and completion.

Customers seeking more information can call 073 or check Aguakan’s official accounts on Facebook and X, @DHCAGUAKAN.
