Is your water discolored water? It is not unusual for water to be discolored while we are flushing hydrants, after a water main break or during a fire. If your cold water is discolored at other times please give us a call or check our website for information about causes of system wide problems.
Hydrants are flushed twice per year to remove sediment in the water mains but deposits also form in water services and home plumbing. The If you find that the occurrences of discolored water do not coincide with flushing or main breaks and your neighbors do not have the same issue, it might be time to flush your water service.
We can flush the service for you by removing the water meter, attaching a hose and running the service at full pressure to scour the pipe wall. It takes about a half an hour and there is no charge for the work. We will need access to the water meter and someone over the age of 18 must be at home while the work is done. Please call (978) 887-1517 to schedule an appointment.
