Aquarion Improving Water Mains in Mystic

Apr 4, 2024 by Peter Fazekas Connecticut
Water main cleaning scheduled to launch April 11
 
Mystic, Conn. – April 4, 2024 – Aquarion Water Company today announced a water main cleaning project in the company’s Mystic system (Mystic and Stonington). The project is scheduled to take place from Thursday, April 11, through Friday, July 12, and will ensure customers in the Mystic area continue to receive the highest quality water.  

The cleaning schedule for April 11 (subject to change) will take place from 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on the following streets:

Stonington
Bayview Ave, Bradley St, Chesebro Ln, Elihu St, Elm St, Island Rd, Lees CT, Meadow Ave, South St, Summit St. 
 
During the flushing of the system, customers may notice temporary low pressure or discoloration in their water. This discoloration results from the temporary disturbance of the water flow, which stirs up naturally occurring minerals that settle in water mains. 
 
Aquarion recommends customers store water in their refrigerators for drinking and cooking. Customers should also refrain from washing laundry if water is discolored. Before resuming use, customers should run their cold-water faucets until the water appears clear.  
 
Aquarion encourages customers to visit www.aquarionwater.com/alerts to sign up for automated alerts and to get the latest information on the project. Customers with questions should contact Aquarion’s Customer Service Center at 1-800-732-9678 or cs@aquarionwater.com.
