MAWSS Releases Hydrant Flushing Routes for April & May 2023
During the flushing process, our customers may experience fluctuations in pressure and discolored water. Although the water does not pose a health risk, it is recommended to avoid drinking the water until it
runs clear. It is fine to use the water for showering, bathing, and toilet flushing. Do not use immediately after flushing or your laundry could be discolored.
Areas included in the flushing Ashmoor/Pinestation:
- Hillcrest/Grelot Maryknoll/Charingwood Timberly Christopher/Largo Longmeadow
- Regent Dr/Pinehurst Bit & Spur Rd Colonial Cir
- Mobile, AL – Mobile Area Water & Sewer System will flush fire hydrants in parts of West
- Mobile beginning Monday, April 3, 2023 through the end of May. Hydrant flushing is performed for maintenance purposes to remove sediment from pipes in order to maintain clarity and quality in the distribution pipes.
Shelton Beach Mississippi St
Forest Dale/Forest Hill Border Cir
If you notice discolored water after flushing, turn on several cold water taps in your home to allow new water to work its way into your pipes. Let the water run for several minutes until the discoloration is gone and the water runs clear. In some infrequent cases, customers may experience slight discoloration for a few hours. This discoloration only affects the appearance of the water; it does not affect the water quality or taste. If discoloration continues, please contact our customer care team at (251) 694-6135.
