Annual City of Hollywood Water Line Flushing – IMPORTANT – CLICK TO READ

August 6, 2025

TO ALL RESIDENTS OF JADE-LYNN APARTMENTS

Annual Water Line Flushing 

August 25th through September 28th

The Department of Public Utilities (DPU) will conduct its annual water line flushing program from August 25th through September 28th. This essential maintenance removes accumulated sediments from water pipes, a required practice for all U.S. water systems

During flushing, the Water Treatment Plant will temporarily switch from chloramine to free chlorination to aid sediment removal. While this may alter the water’s appearance, taste or odor, it remains safe to drink and is regularly tested.

DPU staff will systematically open fire hydrants to flush pipes, typically between 8 p.m. and midnight. The flushed sediments may cause temporary cloudiness but are harmless and should settle within hours. While free chlorination ends September 28th, line flushing will continue city-wide for several weeks, expected to conclude by October 9th.

Individuals with special water concerns, such as businesses with fish/shellfish tanks or users of kidney dialysis machines, should note that regular methods for testing and removing free chlorine may not be effective. Continue testing and adjusting for any remaining chloramines through October 9th.

For more information, contact Hollywood’s Division of Water Quality at 954.967.4230 (option 2) or the Water Treatment Plant at the same number.

We appreciate your attention.

Thank you,
