TAKE NOTICE that the Township of Tiny will begin flushing water mains throughout the Fall season starting on September 3, 2024, which may impact municipal water users. To view the 2024 fall water main flushing schedule, please visit our website at www.tiny.ca/drinkingwater or click here. The required work will take place during the week, Monday to Friday, only between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
There may be potential water interruptions and discoloured water could stain laundry during these times. If your water remains discoloured or dirty, run the water until it is clear. It is recommended that water softeners are left in by-pass mode during water main flushing.
This is a vital process to ensure the distribution systems are in good working order for when they are needed most. The process will also remove any accumulated sediment that may be built up in the pipes and help ensure the cleanest water possible.
The Township of Tiny’s water distribution system is a complex network of pipes and storage reservoirs where sediment or deposits may naturally accumulate over time. If not removed, these materials may cause water quality deterioration, taste and odour problems, or discolouration of the water.
