The city says it will also help avoid a boil-water order.
It asks that residents and businesses refrain from all outdoor use, including washing cars, and avoid using dishwashers, washing machines and taking long showers.
Residents are also asked not to hoard water, as the city says it creates an increase in water consumption in a short period of time, adding to difficulties at its treatment plant.
