SELLERSVILLE, Pa. (WPVI) -- A boil water advisory continues for some residents in Bucks County after a water main break over the weekend.

The water main has been repair, but officials are awaiting the results of water tests to make sure the system is free of bacteria.

The tests results are not expected to be back until Tuesday.

The advisory is for customers of the North Penn Water Authority in Sellersville and West Rockhill Township in Bucks County.

The North Penn Water Authority issued the alert for Sellersville and West Rockhill Township on Sunday.

"If you're going to drink the water or use it for cooking, we're asking you to boil," said Sellersville Utility Manager Cheryl Ford.

Tiki Martino, owner of Stella's House Blend Caf, says the "all-clear" can't come soon enough.

"We're using bagged ice, we're having to boil any water that we use. As long as we know what we're dealing with, we can do it," Martino said.
