Welcome to Serrano Water District

HYDRANT FLUSHING PROGRAM

We will be flushing hydrants between 9am and 2pm periodically Monday through Thursday throughout the year as time permits. So if you notice “discolored water” during this time it takes a couple hours to completely settle. Just flush your system starting with the farthest bath tub (not shower head). What we are trying to accomplish are a few things; Exercise the hydrant and make sure it works properly, perform a flow test, and clear the mains of years of settled silt. All of these things are normal in a municipal water system. So the water you see our staff flushing from the hydrant is not “wasting water” but is rather a necessary function to maintaining a municipal drinking water system.
