New Jersey American Water to Start Annual Spring Cleaning<\/b><\/p>\n

Water main flushing begins this month and continues through the fall<\/i><\/p>\n

CAMDEN, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nBeginning March 15 and into the fall months, <\/b>New Jersey American Water<\/a> will perform the annual cleaning of its water distribution system to support the continued provision of high-quality, reliable water service to our customers. Flushing the system helps to clean out any build up of mineral deposits and sediment inside the pipes. The company also flushes its hydrants to confirm they are operational and to check fire flows in the system.\n<\/p>\n

\nFlushing involves simultaneously opening fire hydrants in a specific area to create increased water flows. The service areas and dates when flushing begins are posted at www.newjerseyamwater.com<\/a>, under Alerts<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

\nWhile water mains are being cleaned, customers may notice short periods of low water pressure or discolored water. If customers experience temporary water discoloration, New Jersey American Water recommends running the cold water until it is clear. The following steps are also encouraged:\n<\/p>\n
