City Of Courtenay Begins Flushing Water Mains Today

Beginning Monday, April 8, 2024, the City of Courtenay begins flushing water mains in part of east Courtenay.

Flushing is planned on weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. through to April 30, but individual homes or businesses will only be affected for short periods of time - generally about an hour.

The Village of Cumberland, and other spots throughout the area will be doing the same at various times.

During flushing hours, households may experience temporary, short-term water pressure fluctuations, along with cloudy water or discolouration.

After flushing, run your taps for a bit until the water clears.

It’s best to keep showers, washers, and dishwashers off while work is being done.
