🚨Boil Water Advisory Reminder for Greater Sudbury Residents🚨
With parts of our community currently under a boil water advisory, we wanted to share a few important reminders to help keep your household safe until the advisory is lifted.
During a boil water advisory:
✔️Bring tap water to a rolling boil for at least 1 minute before drinking
✔️Use boiled or bottled water for:
- drinking
- making coffee or tea
- brushing teeth
- washing fruits and vegetables
- preparing infant formula or food
⚠️Avoid using unboiled tap water for anything that could be consumed.
🧼You can still:
- shower and bathe (with extra care for young children)
- wash laundry
- wash dishes with hot water and proper drying/sanitizing
🏡A little preparation goes a long way:
✔️Fill reusable water bottles ahead of time
✔️Keep extra drinking water on hand
✔️Replace water filters after the advisory ends if recommended by the manufacturer
Please continue following updates and recommendations from local officials until the advisory is officially lifted.
Stay safe, Sudbury💛
