Wheeling Fire Hydrant Flushing to Take Place Throughout May

The Wheeling Fire Department will be flushing all city fire hydrants throughout the month of May in all neighborhoods. The process will take place Monday through Thursday during regular business hours. Hydrant testing will not take place on Friday’s.
 
 The process can stir up sediment resulting in discolored water. Should this occur, run water until it clears before using. Testing is done to ensure the hydrants and lines withstood the winter months and are functioning properly.
