“We are pleased to report that test results show no need to boil water. THE BOIL WATER ADVISORY IS LIFTED and it is no longer necessary to boil your water before using,” they wrote in a message to customers.
They encourage running water faucets for three to five minutes to flush the service connection and interior plumbing, empty and clean automatic ice makers and water chillers, as well as draining and refilling water reservoirs in tall buildings, among other things.
The boil water advisory was issued Friday night following a loss of water pressure after a water pump servicing the Jersey City Heights area lost power for approximately 90 minutes, as HCV first reported.
