Ohio-American Water Co., Tiffin District, is continuing to flush its water system in Tiffin this week, according to Jim Welty, operations superintendent.
The flushing may cause temporary water discoloration but will not affect the water's safety. Running the water for several minutes should eliminate the problem. Residents are advised to check the flushing schedule each week and to avoid doing laundry when flushing is taking place in their area. Flushing does not have to take place on your immediate street for the water to be discolored.
Residents who have questions about the flushing schedule, or those who have clothing that becomes discolored by doing laundry, can contact an Ohio-American customer service representative at (800) 673-5999 for assistance.
