Please note the following when your water service is replaced: Remember to flush all the water lines in your home for several minutes – both hot and cold, and both inside and outside spigots. You may experience air in the water lines as well. If the water is discolored – run the Cold water in your bath tub until the water clears up. If the water appears cloudy, it is normal as that is typically tiny air bubbles inside the water and those will go away over time.
