- Hydrant and Main Flushing
Your water is safe to drink during and after hydrant flushing. Occasionally, water becomes discolored after hydrant flushing. If this happens, run your cold water tap for a few minutes until the water clears. If it doesn't clear the first time, wait a few minutes and run the water again. You should avoid washing clothes until the water clears.
If you have any questions on the hydrant flushing , please call the Utility Office at 262-569-2196.
The periodic flushing of hydrants and mains occurs in spring (May) and fall (September/Oct) and continues for several weeks as crews work through each hydrant zone (1-4). Please see map below with zone details.
