Public Notice: Windham Water System Hydrant Flushing

Please be advised that the Town Water Department will be conducting routine hydrant flushing for the Windham water system on Wednesday, October 7, and Thursday, October 8, 2026.

  • Dates: Wednesday, October 7 & Thursday, October 8, 2026 | Approximately 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM
  • Affected Area: Windham water system ONLY
  • Not Affected: Hensonville system

Residents & Businesses:

  • Limit Water Usage: Please do your best to limit water usage between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM on flushing days. This helps minimize water turbidity and ensures a faster “clean-up” time at your tap. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
  • Discolored Water: If you experience temporary discoloration after hours, run your cold water tap for a few minutes until it clears before using appliances like washing machines or dishwashers.

Travel Safety & Caution: Please use caution while driving or traveling through active flushing zones. Be mindful of water on the roadway, service equipment, and personnel in the area.

Ongoing Maintenance Schedule: Going forward, routine hydrant flushing will be conducted semi-annually in the spring and fall for both public water systems. Regular flushing is necessary to maintain system integrity and supply high-quality water to all consumers.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the Town Water Department.
