Hydrant Flushing
Middlesex Water
Company periodically conducts a fire hydrant flushing program which
helps maintain the integrity of its distribution system.
|
|
Hydrant
flushing, part of the Company’s routine testing and maintenance effort,
is a process through which water is forced through mains to dislodge
small particles of rust and sediment. This sediment does not affect
water quality but can cause water to become discolored as it travels
through mains at high velocity. Water is safe to drink and discoloration
often disappears within a short time.
Hydrant flushing is generally conducted between the hours of 10 p.m.
and 6 a.m. to minimize inconvenience to customers and motorists. In the
event that discolored water is experienced, it is usually best to wait
until water runs clear before using washing machines or dishwashers. |
