A precautionary boil water notice has been issued for ECUA customers located on following locations, subsequent to repair work on a water main:
- Archer Ave, (address range: 1 to 74)
- W. Avery Street, (address range: 2900 to 3200)
Residents are advised to boil water for one minute at a rolling boil, or to use 6 drops of regular unscented household bleach per gallon of water, for water to be used for drinking of cooking purposes.
Two independent bacteriological samples have been initiated and the advisory will be lifted as soon as possible. This process routinely takes 48 hours. Precautionary Boil Water Notices are issued as a part of standard protocol following any loss of water pressure, whether as a result of planned maintenance activities or unscheduled repairs.
ECUA crews have completed repair and maintenance work and flushed out the lines. Residents are advised that there is a possibility of discolored water as a result of the break and flushing and to flush their home’s plumbing by running their taps for a few minutes. If problems persist, customers are asked to contact ECUA Customer Service at 850-476-0480 for assistance or see precautionary boil water notice guidelines on the ECUA website at www.ecua.fl.gov.
