Flush is Finished April 24, 2025

The water system of the full system flush is complete. Sediment is stirred up during a flush, so please follow the instructions below to complete your portion of the system flush.

If you live on Shawn Ave, Riepma Ave, Stephen St, Douglas St, Glencairn Rd, Circle Ave, Gabrielson St, Arnold Rd and Penn Cove Roads, you should run your outside faucets today. You are participating in completing the full system flush by running your portion of the lines until you see that the water runs clear. Residents of all other streets that were flushed on previous days do not need to run outside faucets again unless you did not run your faucets after Tuesday’s flush day.

It is possible for chlorine levels to be higher than normal after any water event, but it is not anticipated that it will be after this one.

End of Day Flush Results April 22, 2025

OH Water has finished with the flush for today!!

It’s time for everyone to get familiar with their community roads or take a look at the attached map. The sections in green were done today.

If you live on the street or street sections that were flushed today, you need to run your outside faucet any time now.

ALL OF-Mark St, Lisa St, Paul Ave, Allyson St, Sidney St, Donald Ave, Carl Ave & Diane Ave were done today. As well as: Sharon St- North of Stephen & Donald Ave, and Phillip St, East of Shawn Ave. The small section of Sharon to Arnold was NOT done.

If you do not live on the streets or street sections above, your street will be done on Thursday, April 24th. You will flush outside then.

EVERYONE still needs to refrain from using water on Thursday, not just the streets being flushed. Thank you!

Full System Flush

Rolling Hills-Glencairn main water lines will be flushed on Tuesday, April 22nd & Thursday, April 24th. Flushing begins at 8am and continues each day until 5pm.If the flush continues to a 3rd day, the signs at the entrances to the community will not be removed until the flush is 100% complete.

A full system flush consists of closing and opening main water valves strategically throughout the community to run water through all the main lines and out the fire hydrants. This process cleans out all the water lines of sediment that can build up over time. DO NOT USE ANY WATER during the flushing. You may have water in your home sporadically throughout the days but using it will only delay the restoration of supply to everyone.

Additionally, if you use water during the flush, it may pull water in the wrong direction and stirred up sediment will be pulled into your house or one of your neighbors. When the flushing is complete, we suggest you turn on an outside hose bib and let it run until you see that it runs clear (about 10-15 minutes, depending on how far the hose bib is from the main line in the street). 

Only the streets that were actually flushed need to run their own faucet to complete the flush in their area. There is no need to run outside faucets if your street was not done. The website will be updated at the end of each flush day with the streets that were flushed and any other pertinent information.

You will know when the flush is completed when the signs are removed from community entrances and if there is a current phone number on file for you in the office, you will receive a “Robo-call or Robo-text” from RHGC as the sender with the notification. Please update your contact information if you do not receive a notice.

Flush results-End of day 10/22/24

It’s time for everyone to get familiar with their community roads or take a look at the attached map. The sections in red were done today. If you live on the following streets or street sections that were flushed today, you need to run your outside faucet after 5pm today. (if you can wait a little longer, it would be good to wait a few more minutes to let the reservoir recover since it’s very low)

ALL OF-

Mark St, Lisa St, Paul Ave, Allyson St, Sidney St, Donald Ave, Carl Ave & Diane Ave were done today. As well as

Sharon St- North of Stephen & Donald Ave was done. The small section of Sharon St south to Arnold was NOT done.

Flush begins 10/22/24 AND 10/24/24

FULL SYSTEM FLUSH PROCEDURE.  Rolling Hills-Glencairn main water lines will be flushed on Tuesday, October 22nd & Thursday, October 24th. Flushing begins at 8am and continues each day until 5pm. If the flush continues to a 3rd day, the signs at the entrances to the community will not be removed until the flush is 100% complete.

A full system flush consists of closing and opening main water valves strategically throughout the community to run water through all the main lines and out the fire hydrants.

When the flushing is complete, we suggest you turn on an outside hose bib and let it run until you see that it runs clear (about 10-15 minutes, depending on how far the hose bib is from the main line in the street). 

Recently, King Water has been flushing in sections, so only the streets that were actually flushed need to run their own faucet to complete the flush in their area. There is no need to run outside faucets if your street was not done. The website will be updated at the end of each flush day with the streets that were flushed and any other pertinent information.

You will know when the flush is completed when the signs are removed from community entrances and if there is a current phone number on file for you in the office, you will receive a “Robo-call or Robo-text” from RHGC as the sender with the notification.

Flush is Done! 4/12/2024

The flush is done! If you live on the green sections of the map below, you should run your outside faucets. This will clear your section of the system and complete the individual portion of the flush. We anticipate the next full system flush will be in October.

Always watch the back of your bills for updates and information!
