The City of Summerville Fire Department will be conducting routine hydrant flushing tomorrow, Monday, June 16th and again on Tuesday, June 17th, from 8 AM until 3 PM each day. This essential maintenance is crucial for ensuring the community’s safety and preparedness in the event of a fire. Residents in North Summerville, specifically in the Hairlake Road area, Orchard Hill Road area, and Commerce Street area, are advised that they may experience brief periods of water discoloration during the flushing process. “This discoloration is completely normal and safe,” assures a statement released by the Fire Department. “If you experience discolored water, simply run your tap for a few minutes, and the water should clear quickly.” During this maintenance period, Fire Department employees will be performing a series of vital tasks on each hydrant, including lubrication, flushing, and a thorough function check. The City of Summerville expresses its gratitude for the community’s cooperation and understanding as they carry out this vital work to maintain the integrity of the city’s fire suppression system.
