What if my water is discoloured?

If your water is discoloured, the first thing to do is run your hot water tap and fill a clear glass.

If there is colour to the water then it is likely that your hot water tank has sediment in it and it needs to be flushed out. If there is no colour from the hot water tap but there is when you run the cold water, then please call the Municipality at 902-883-2299 during 8:30am-4:30pm Monday to Friday and ask to speak with the Supervisor of Drinking Water Operations or the Manager of Water & Wastewater.
