Upper Marlboro Customers May Experience Water Pressure Changes This Weekend
Laurel, MD – March 6, 2018: – (RealEstateRama) — WSSC is replacing a large water main on Leeland Road. Customers may experience lower than normal water pressure beginning Saturday, March 10, 2018, at 9:00 pm until Sunday, March 11, 2018, at 5:00 am.
We will make every effort to avoid a complete loss of water service, however, we will be establishing a water station, starting at 7:00 pm, which will be located at the Beechtree Community Center, 15511 Beech Tree Parkway, Upper Marlboro, MD 20774.
Helpful tips for this temporary loss of water pressure:
Before:
- Consider storing water in advance for short-term use.
- Drinking water – clean glass or plastic containers.
- Other purposes – sinks, bathtubs, laundry tubs, coolers or pots, and pans.
- Make sure large containers of water are not accessible to children.
During:
- Do not wash clothes during this time as they may become stained.
After:
- When water pressure is fully restored, you may experience discolored water or have air trapped in your water lines. See flushing video to the right.
