Flushing is a process that rapidly removes water from the city's water piping system, similar to the process of flushing a car's radiator.
Water pipes are usually flushed by opening fire hydrants, where the discharged water flows off the streets the same as rainwater.
Flushing during daylight hours reduces the city's labor expenses and allows for easier identification of valves and hydrants.
