NOTICE OF WATER SERVICE DISRUPTION The Water Utility will be participating in a fire system test in the Town of Mahone Bay as follows: Tuesday July 14th, 2026 - Starting at 10:00AM for approximately 15 minutes. What to expect: Reduced Water Pressure Discoloured Water Intermittent Service Disruption
What to Do: We recommend closing the main shut-off valve and water supply valve to hot water heaters; this will help avoid having discoloured water enter the hot water heater and help avoid having heating elements burn out. Consider turning off booster pumps during flushing to avoid equipment damage. Check for discoloured water prior to doing laundry or running the dishwasher. Suspended material causing the discolouration can permanently stain fabrics. To check, run a cold-water faucet, if discoloured water is present, flush your system by continuing to run a cold-water faucet until the water runs clear. The Town of Mahone Bay regrets any inconvenience created during this essential testing process. Please direct any questions or comments to the Town Office: 902 - 624 - 8327
