While the hydrants are open in your neighborhood, you may experience discolored water or a small drop in water pressure. In the unlikely event your water service is interrupted or you are experiencing no water pressure please notify the Hanover Communications Center at 781-826-2335 x 0 and they will in-turn notify the DPW.  Should your water appear reddish, yellow or brown, do not be alarmed.  It is recommended you do not use the water or do laundry for two hours after noticing this discoloration.  After you have waited, run your cold water tap (without the aerator screen) for five to ten minutes.  This should remove any sediment from inside your service.  If the water does not clear after two hours, please notify the Hanover Communications Center at 781-826-2335 x 0 between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. or notify the DPW directly at 781-826-3189 during normal business hours (between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.).
