2022 Fire Hydrant Flushing Schedule

The Village of Elmsford Water Department will flush all hydrants and water mains in the distribution system starting September 28, 2020. The flushing program will take approximately two weeks to complete.

Work will be conducted during the day and night as designated below. Daytime flushing will take place between the hours of 9:00 AM and 3:30 PM. Nighttime flushing will be completed between the hours of IO PM and 2 AM. Hydrant flushing is a necessary System maintenance procedure.

The flushing operation may cause discoloration of the water as accumulated sediment in the pipes is disturbed and conveyed through the system to hydrant discharge points. Residents are advised not to do laundry during periods of discoloration. This inconvenience should be temporary and should last no more than two to three hours following the flushing. Prior to use, water should be run until it is clear (all water taps should be run). To avoid any inconvenience, check water before doing laundry.
