Public service announcement-Waterline Flushing

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

    The Town of Wise will be flushing water lines beginning Sunday, August 24, 2025, and ending Friday morning, August 29, 2025. The flushing will be completed at 3:30 am on Friday, August 29, 2024. To the greatest extent possible, this procedure will be completed in the evening between 7:00 p.m. and 3:30 a.m. 

    Wise water customers are advised that there will be possible water discoloration, odor, and/or air present in their water as a result. To avoid any staining of laundry, customers are encouraged to run water from a cold-water sink tap before washing any clothes in order to verify that the water is not discolored. 

    Customers whose hot water heaters are not equipped with a check valve as required by BOCA Plumbing Code are advised to turn their water heaters off while water lines are being flushed in their area.   

    The Town of Wise regrets any inconvenience caused as a result of water line flushing, but this practice is necessary in order to maintain the integrity of the Town's water system and to best serve you, the water customer.

The Town of Wise is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
