October 5, 2021

Ambler Water Dept. will conduct routine system hydrant flushing beginning Wednesday, October 6th.  Flushing will occur weekdays between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.  Check back often for flushing schedule.  Current Flushing schedule:  Whitemarsh – Hampton Lane, W. Butler, Steeplechase Development, Skippack Pike, and Dorsam Way.  If you experience discolored water, DO NOT OPEN THE HOT WATER SIDE OF YOUR FAUCET as this will bring the discolored water into the hot water tank.  RUN COLD WATER only from your faucet for several minutes.  Continue repeating this process until the water runs clear.  If you have a water softener, it is suggested you bypass the water softener until the situation is ‘clear.’ For further information contact the Water Department at 215-646-1000 ext. 110 or 111 between 8-4:30 p.m., M-F.
