Annual Spring Hydrant Flushing Begins in Shelburne

The Town of Shelburne will begin its annual spring hydrant flushing program next week, starting in Zone 1.

Zone 1: May 11–15
Zone 2: May 19–22
Zone 3: May 25–30

*Dates are subject to change due to operational requirements.

Hydrant flushing is an important part of maintaining the Town’s water system. The process helps remove the buildup of iron and minerals from watermains, preventing sediment accumulation and maintaining water quality.

During flushing, residents may notice temporary discolouration in their water due to increased mineral content. If this occurs, residents are advised to run a cold tap preferably in a laundry tub or bathtub for 5 to 10 minutes until the water clears.

For more information or if you have questions, please contact the Town of Shelburne at 519-925-2600 ext. 231 or email water@shelburne.ca.
