Scheduled water system maintenance is underway on Steel, Bronze and Brass roads.
The District of Port Hardy said water service may be shut off or experience reduced pressure until 4 p.m. Jan. 15.
The district recommended affected residents turn off power to hot-water tanks to protect heating elements.
The district said some residents may notice temporary water discolouration when service is restored.
“This water is safe for use and should clear up within a few hours,” the release said.
