Indiana American Water Schedules Main Flushing in Noblesville District for September 10 - November 17, 2023

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (September 8, 2023) Indiana American Water will conduct water main flushing in the Noblesville service area beginning overnight on Sunday, September 10 and continuing through Tuesday, September 12 in the downtown area from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Flushing of the remaining areas of Noblesville and northern parts of Fishers will start on Tuesday, September 12 and run through Friday, November 17, 2023, on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The company conducts the annual maintenance program to assure high-quality water service and to ensure fire hydrants are operational.

According to Noblesville Senior Operations Superintendent Greg Stephens, “Water main and fire hydrant flushing is an important part of a regular maintenance program for water distribution systems. Indiana American Water consistently meets or exceeds all drinking water standards.”

No interruptions in water service are anticipated as a result of the work.  Customers may experience a slight drop in water pressure or temporary water discoloration while this program is underway. Customers should refrain from doing laundry during the time of day the flushing program is taking place in or near their neighborhood.

If tap water is discolored, Indiana American Water recommends allowing several cold-water faucets to run for a short time until the water runs clear. Using more than one faucet allows the water to clear more quickly.

Additional information on water main flushing is available online at https://www.amwater.com/inaw/resources/pdf/Flushing%20-%20IN.pdf. The water main flushing will be performed by Indiana American Water crews. They will be working out of trucks identified with the company logo. All employees will also have photo ID badges.

 

Indiana American Water, a subsidiary of American Water (NYSE: AWK), is the largest investor-owned water utility in the state, providing high-quality and reliable water and wastewater services to approximately 1.32 million people.
