Viewers contacted Eyewitness News because they believed their loved ones in the jail on San Jacinto Street did not have access to water and visitation was canceled.
Harris County told ABC13 the problem came from a water main break which left some floors of the facility with very little to no pressure.
The Sheriff's Office posted on Twitter that repairs are expected to be complete on Monday and all facilities have air conditioning.
