The order took effect on Wednesday due to a water main break.
After several days of testing, a certified laboratory confirmed that water samples are free of coliform bacteria, officials said.
The order was in place for all city water customers within the borders of Park Avenue, which is south of the UP railroad tracks, to York Street to the Butterfield Road to Interstate 294. Only residents living in that geographic boundary needed to follow the boil order, city officials said.If you have not used any water in your home during this boil order period, it is recommended to run each faucet in the home for 2-3 minutes before any consumption use.
Any ice generated during the precautionary boil order is recommended to be discarded and regenerated.If you have any water filters in your home , you should consider changing them at this time.Copyright © 2023 WLS-TV. All Rights Reserved.
