The Yorktown Water District will begin flushing fire hydrants beginning Monday October 5, 2026, weekdays between the hours of 8 AM - 5 PM (barring any emergencies).

Fire hydrants are flushed to maintain water quality by removing sediment, rust, and mineral deposits from water pipes. This routine maintenance also ensures proper water pressure and verifies that the hydrant will function correctly in an emergency. It further reduces bacterial growth by restoring chlorine levels in the distribution system.

It is recommended that residents refrain from doing laundry while hydrant flushing is occurring in your neighborhood.  Once flushing is completed on your street, please run you cold water to clear out any possible discoloration.

The flushing area comprises streets located west of the Taconic State Parkway.

Streets scheduled to be flushed will be posted daily on the Town's Website www.yorktownny.gov

Thank you for your cooperation.

The Yorktown Water District has received calls regarding Water Service Line Insurance mailings. These cards are not from the Yorktown Water District. They are marketing mailings selling service line insurance and appear to be from a legitimate company.
