Irish Water and Kildare County Council have restored the water supply, but full water service may take some time to return as water refills the pipe network. This leaves a possibility that some customers may have airlocks in their internal plumbing.

Temporary water stations will also remain at the Church of Ireland in Celbridge and the filling station on the Clane Road.
