Periodically, during this work, you may experience cloudy or discolored water, lower than usual water pressure, and the possibility of air in your water lines. 

This annual maintenance program is very important. It helps to ensure continuous delivery of high quality water to homes and businesses. We also check fire hydrants operation to help maintain public safety.
