Re: brown water
When I get brown water, normally there was water main break. I would try in a little while. If it is still brown, I would not drink it. They say to boil it.

Re: brown water
I don't think you are suppose to flush if it is a water main break.

Re: brown water
If it was a water main break, you probably wouldnt even be getting enough pressure to run the water. I would let it run a while and see if it gets clearer. I'd probably also just boil the water too, to be safe.

Re: brown water
Run it a while but don't drink until you hear further.

Re: brown water
That happens when our water is turned off. Let it run, and you are not supposed to drink it for 24 hours then you should be fine.
