Hydrant Flushing

July 10, 2025

???? Kirklin residents, please be aware that hydrant flushing will be taking place throughout the town today and tomorrow, July 10 & 11.

Why is hydrant flushing important? Hydrant flushing is a crucial part of our water system maintenance. It helps to: 
  • Ensure water quality by removing sediment and mineral buildup from water lines.
  • Maintain proper water pressure.
  • Verify that fire hydrants are functioning correctly for emergency situations.
What to expect:
  • You may experience temporary fluctuations in water pressure or discoloration (rust or brown color) during and after flushing in your area. 
     

 

  • If you notice discolored water, run your cold water tap until it clears up. 
     
  • If discoloration persists, please contact the superintendent at 765-209-2655. 
     

 

 
Important Reminders:
  • Please bypass your water softener or filter during flushing to avoid drawing any sediment into your system. 
     

 

  • Check your water before doing laundry to ensure it is clear. 
     
     

 

 
We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to maintain the quality and reliability of our water system.
