FLUSHING OF AQUEDUCT NETWORKS: Schedule revised

Deux-Montagnes, November 2, 2020 –  Flushing work on the aqueduct network,  which was scheduled to end on October 23, will continue until November 13 in two areas to be completed.

Find the sector map and revised timeline below. The work to be completed will be carried out between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday to Friday.

NOTE TO THE CITIZENS

  • The detachment of iron particles in the pipes can lead to  cloudy, reddish-coloured water. It is recommended to run the cold water for a few minutes until it returns to its normal appearance.
  • Coloured water can be consumed and therefore does not cause any health risk.
  • Before using household appliances, such as washing machines or dishwashers, first make sure that the water is colourless to avoid soiling clothes or dishes.

This operation mainly removes the natural mineral sediments left by the water on the inside walls of pipes (iron and rust particles) in order to improve the quality of drinking water.

The City of Deux-Montagnes thanks its citizens in advance for their understanding.
