The City of Summerville Fire Department will be conducting hydrant flushing today, Monday, December 8th, 2025, from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

City officials say residents—especially in southeast Summerville—may notice brief periods of water discoloration during the flushing process. The city says this is normal and safe. If discoloration occurs, residents are advised to run their tap for a few minutes, and the water should clear quickly.

The affected areas include parts of the Highway 27 area, the Lake Wanda Reita Road area, and the Washington Avenue area. During the maintenance period, Fire Department employees will be performing essential tasks on hydrants including lubrication, flushing, and function checks.

The City of Summerville thanks residents for their cooperation as this work is carried out to help keep the community protected and prepared.
