The City of Dieppe has now lifted a boil water order for properties located between 581 and 628 Centrale Street as well, Aimé and Damien streets and Firmin and Dométhilde crescents.
The order was issued earlier this week as a precaution, due to a water main break.
Here are the measurer to take when a boil water order has been lifted:
– Cold interior and exterior water faucets: Run tap water for 10 to 15 minutes.
– Hot water faucets: Run tap water for at least 15 minutes for a 40 gallon hot water tank and at least 30 minutes for a 80 gallon hot water tank or larger.
– Water dispensers from refrigerators should be flushed with at least one litre of water before consumption.
– After flushing hot and cold water pipes, run dishwasher empty one time.
– Discard any water used in humidifiers and rinse the device with clean water.
– Automatic ice dispensers should be emptied of ice made during the boil water order. Then, discard any ice made over an additional 24-hour period to assure that any potential contaminated water has been discarded.
