Notice Of Water Main Leak Detection

The Water Utility will be conducting leak detection on the following dates:
11:30 PM to 6:00 AM - Monday October 25th, 2021
&
11:30 PM to 6:00 AM - Tuesday October 26th, 2021




What to expect:

• Reduced Water Pressure
• Discoloured Water
• Intermittent Service Disruption

 What to Do:

• We recommend closing the main shut-off valve and water supply valve to hot water heaters; this will help avoid having discoloured water enter the hot water heater and help avoid having heating elements burn out.

• Consider turning off booster pumps during flushing to avoid equipment damage.
  
• Check for discoloured water prior to doing laundry or running the dishwasher.  Suspended material causing the discolouration can permanently stain fabrics.  To check, run a cold-water faucet, if discoloured water is present, flush your system by continuing to run a cold-water faucet until the water runs clear.

 
The Town of Mahone Bay regrets any inconvenience.
