Fire Hydrant Flushing

May 20, 2026 by Village of Covington

The Village of Covington will be flushing all fire hydrants throughout the community starting June 15, 2026 as part of routine maintenance. Hydrant flushing helps maintain water quality, removes sediment from water mains, and ensures hydrants are operating properly for fire protection.

Residents may notice temporary discoloration in their water or a slight drop in water pressure during flushing activities. If discoloration occurs, please run water for several minutes until the water clears. The water is safe to consume.

If you have any questions, please contact the Village Office 937-473-3420.

Thank you,
Village of Covington
