North Caldwell Hydrant Flushing
The North Caldwell Water Department will inspect fire hydrants and flush water mains commencing on Monday, April 14, 2025 and continuing for approximately three weeks. All hydrant flushing will occur Monday through Thursday.
The week beginning on April 14, 2025 hydrant flushing will occur at night between 7:00pm and 11:00pm on Monday through Thursday.
The second week beginning April 21, 2025 hydrant flushing will occur during the day between the hours of 9:00am-3pm Monday through Thursday.
The final week beginning April 28, 2025 hydrant flushing will revert to occurring at night between 7:00pm and 11:00pm Monday through Thursday.
Flushing water mains involve the systematic opening of fire hydrants and allowing them to flow for several minutes. Residents may experience a slight discoloration of their water following flushing. If this occurs, it is suggested that residents run their water until it clears. The discoloration is temporary and presents no ill health effect, but may stain laundry. Residents are therefore advised to be sure water is clear before washing clothes. Please direct any questions or concerns to (973) 228-6410, x-132.
