Week Six For Crystal Lake Hydrant Flushing

The Sixth week of hydrant flushing in Crystal Lake—May 3 to May 7—will involve residents south of Barlina Road to Alexandra Boulevard, west of McHenry Avenue and west of Randall Road.

During flushing, water may become temporarily discolored due to material being removed from water mains. The water is safe to drink, but may stain clothes washed during hydrant flushing. Residents should try to limit water usage during this time, but if this is not possible, the City offers Rover, a chemical that can be used as a cleanser in laundry to remove iron stains, free of charge, should problems occur. Residents with questions are asked to contact the Water Division at (815) 356-3614
