Indiana American to flush water mains

0

Indiana American Water will conduct water main flushing in Noblesville during the next two months. IAW spokesman Joe Loughmiller said water mains in the downtown area were flushed overnight on April 6 and 7. Flushing for the remainder of the system will take place on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. beginning April 8 and continuing through May 30.

“The company conducts the annual maintenance program to assure high-quality water service and to ensure fire hydrants are operational,” Loughmiller said.

Loughmiller said no interruptions in water service are anticipated as a result of the work, but residents may experience a slight drop in water pressure or temporary water discoloration while this program is underway. Customers should refrain from doing laundry during the time of day the flushing program is taking place in or near their neighborhood.

If tap water is discolored, IAW recommends allowing several cold-water faucets to run for a short time until the water runs clear. Using more than one faucet allows the water to clear more quickly.

“Water main and fire hydrant flushing is an important part of a regular maintenance program for water distribution systems. Indiana American Water consistently meets or exceeds all drinking water standards,” Noblesville Superintendent Neal McKee stated.

Loughmiller said the water main flushing will be performed by IAW crews.

“They will be working out of trucks identified with the company logo. All employees will also have photo ID badges,” he said.
