Hydrant Flushing to Start on Monday
Village crews will flush water mains for the next three weeks - see the schedule below - and they recommend not doing laundry while flushing is happening in your neighborhood.
If you have laundry to do over the next few weeks, you may want to consult the chart below before loading it into the washing machine.
’s staff plans to flush water mains, both in the village and in Boulder Hill, over the next three weeks. The idea is to clear sediment from the water lines, and make sure the hydrants are working properly.
There is a catch, though: the water may be discolored during this process, which means if you do your laundry while they’re flushing the mains in your neighborhood, it might get stained. So village staff is recommending you check the schedule and refrain from washing clothes during the week public works crews will be in your area.
