Yardley District: Temporary Water Treatment Change
This is an important notification from Pennsylvania American Water. Our water quality team is making a temporary change in our water treatment process from May 22, 2024 through July 24, 2024 as a part of our normal distribution system maintenance.
We are switching treatment to a form of chlorine known as “free chlorine,” which does not contain ammonia. This stronger disinfectant is often used in conjunction with flushing water mains and fire hydrants. If you have a health care need that requires purified or filtered water, you should reach out to your healthcare provider with any questions.
During the temporary treatment change, customers may experience a more noticeable chlorine taste or odor in their water. There is no reason for concern. This is due to the switch in chlorine types. For more information and to see a map of the affected area please go to https://amwater.com/paaw/alerts.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and thank you for your patience and understanding while we undertake this necessary maintenance of the water system.
