Ambler Water Department – Hydrant Flushing Program

Ambler Water Department – Hydrant Flushing Program

The Ambler Water Department will begin its annual hydrant flushing program in the near future. Flushing will start in the Whitemarsh and Whitpain areas, then proceed to Upper Dublin and Lower Gwynedd, and continue toward Ambler.

Notices with specific dates and locations will be posted on our website as the schedule is finalized.

During this period, you may experience temporary changes in water pressure and some discoloration (Brown (Iron) or cloudy water). This is normal and usually clears up within a few hours. We recommend running your cold water taps for a few minutes if you notice any discoloration. Avoid using hot water or doing laundry during flushing in your immediate area, as it could pull sediment into your home’s plumbing.

If discoloration persists for more than a few hours, please contact the Ambler Water Department at 215-646-1000 Ext 111 or ssmallberger@borough.ambler.pa.us

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we perform this important maintenance to ensure the quality and reliability of your drinking water.

Thank you,
Ambler Water Department
