LELWD To Begin Water Main Flushing On October 3rd
LELWD is asking water consumers to prepare for the possibility of periods of temporarily discolored water during the flushing process.
Flushing improves water quality by reducing the buildup of sediments.
Steps You Can Take:
- Run a cold tap for 10 minutes until water clears. If sediment remains, wait 1-2 hours & repeat.
- Set aside clear water for use during periods of discolored water.
- Avoid using hot water heater, dishwasher & similar appliances when water is discolored.
- Sign up for text or voice alerts from LELWD.
