Ventnor Hydrant Flushing to Begin April 14, 2025

Beginning on Monday, April 14, 2025, for a five (5) week period, the Ventnor Water and Sewer Utility, in conjunction with the Ventnor City Fire Department, will conduct flow testing of the city’s fire hydrants and flushing of the systems water mains. 

The testing will begin at Jackson Avenue and proceed south to Fredericksburg Avenue, followed by Ventnor West, and finishing in Ventnor Heights. The testing will continue through Friday May 16, 2025. 

Residents should not be alarmed if discoloration of tap water is noticed, as this condition is not harmful and will dissipate. Residents should avoid washing clothes, especially white loads, throughout the testing period or while the water is discolored. There may be periods where the water pressure will drop somewhat when testing and flushing are ongoing throughout the day.
