Water main flushing - 2026

Every year we flush our water mains to remove sediment and maintain good water quality.

Annual water main flushing runs from January until mid May. Please see the Water Main Flushing Notice for updated schedule on affected areas.

The District cannot accept any responsibility for damages caused by low water pressure or the use of discoloured water. Please be alert for:

  • Reduced water pressure 

  • Temporary discoloration of water.

What if my water is discoloured?

Discolouration is not a health hazard; It’s strictly aesthetic.

  • Run an outside tap or cold water tap in your bathtub until the water is clear.
  • Minimize consumption until water runs clear.
  • Check faucet screens (kitchen and bathroom) for clogs and clean them by hand if needed.

If you have special requirements for water clarity or would like more information, please contact the Municipal Yard at 250-544-4224.
