LCWD issues hydrant flushing notice

The Lynnfield Center Water District will conduct a high velocity water main flushing of the distribution system during normal business hours beginning the week of September 24, 2018 through the month of October. This is part of the ongoing regular maintenance of the water distribution system.

Please refer to the District’s web site at www.LCWD.US for the complete listing of street schedule dates and times for flushing. Any changes and updates to the schedule will be posted on our web site.

Residents may experience discolored water, low pressure or no pressure during this process. Discolored water should clear after running their cold water for a short period of time. Residents are also advised to avoid doing laundry during the flushing period and to check their water first by running cold water for a few minutes after each day’s flushing period before starting their washing machine. If a customer experiences lower pressure at their faucet after the flushing, they should check the faucet screen for particles which may have collected and clean it out if necessary.

Customers may contact the Lynnfield Center Water District Office at 1.781.334.3901 with any questions.
