This schedule is weather-dependent. If the weather is inclement on the first day, then flushing will start on the second day, etc.

Note: Please be aware that your tap water may be a little discolored in the afternoon. We encourage homeowners to run the water to clear up any discoloration before drinking the water or doing laundry.

Hydrants are flushed for two reasons. First, it ensures high-quality water by removing any sediment, particularly from dead ends, that may have entered the system from rusting pipework, water main breaks, etc. Second, during flushing, every fire hydrant in the city is exercised. This is good for the hydrant and is also a means to identify malfunctioning hydrants so they can be repaired before being needed in an emergency situation.
