Thanks to the texter who wanted to share what they’ve found out about brown water at their home near 40th SW and SW 106th in Arbor Heights: Seattle Fire’s been out testing hydrants, according to what a Seattle Public Utilities rep told the resident when they called to ask. Also: “They said the problem will resolve itself in three to eight hours. They said, don’t attempt to flush your own pipes for a few hours, as that will make the problem worse.” Every so often, someone asks us about a situation like this, and if they haven’t already checked with SPU, we point them to this excellent link that explains possible causes and what to/what not to do – worth saving in case this happens in your area.
