NEW: Popular splash pad in Eganville, Ont. causing concerns for the town's water supply ottnews

A splash pad in Eganville, Ont. has become so popular this summer that it is putting a strain on the town's water system.

"I suppose it shouldn't have surprised us but it did and of course with this heat wave it just made it even worse," Murphy tells CTV News Ottawa. "Potable water takes precedence over everything," says Murphy. "And when our wonderful water and sewer manager equates what's going on to a structure fire, we sit up and take notice."

"Yeah you need to press the button to make it go," says Sarah Schuster, who is a nanny for a four-year-old and visits the splash pad regularly. "And when the kids are here they'll just press it again when it stops."
