The City of Dieppe has now lifted its boil water order for the St-Anselme and Fox Creek zones.
Here are the measures 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.
If you notice a lack of water pressure or discoloured water, please call 877.7990 or 850.5104 (after business hours).
