Avon Water Company Posts Water Main Flushing Schedule

Editor’s note: We published this story earlier in the week, but here it is again in case you missed it.

The Avon Water Company will be flushing its main lines beginning in early October.

The company recommends that customers in the affected area draw water for drinking prior to 7:30 a.m. and refrain from doing laundry, as there may be some discoloration of water during flushing. All customers may experience lower pressures and/or pressure surges, periodic loss of water and/or discolored water in all areas throughout the flushing period.

If your water is discolored, please let the cold water run for 10 – 15 minutes or until the water clears. Anyone with questions may call the Water Company at 860-678-0001.
