PA American Water: Hydrant Flushing
Date Published: April 14, 2025
Crews will begin routine flushing of the water distribution system 4/16/2025 through 5/25/2025 between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM. Flushing allows testing and maintenance of fire hydrants. When crews are working in the designating areas you may notice reduced pressure or discolored water. If your water is discolored, run the cold-water taps only, at the lowest level of the house for about 3 to 5 minutes until the water runs clear. If discolored water occurs, please also refrain from doing laundry during that time.
