Hot water addition side
by Valley, Jeffrey L 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

BE ADVISED - This morning plumbers shut down the hot water on the addition side of the building to flush the system out and to make repairs. When turning the water pressure back on, the usual result is breaking off of sediment in the pipes. Opening the faucets and letting them run for a while will flush all of it out of the pipes. Thanks.
