My water is discolored. What do I do?
If your water is temporarily discolored, do not use for washing, especially white clothes. If you notice discoloration of your laundry after washing, do not put them in the dryer.
After clearing your line, re-wash your laundry, this will usually remove any discoloration. To help clear discolored water, open all cold water taps for 15-30 minutes or until the water runs clear. If you have questions or concerns please call (651) 747-2409 during normal business hours. After hours please call the emergency utility line at (651) 747-2417.
