Reidsville utility advisory confirms chloramine return and system flushing window

The City of Reidsville reported that its routine water-quality maintenance transition moved into final stages in early April, with a posted advisory noting a switch back to chloramines beginning April 5, 2026.

The city said system flushing was planned for the week of April 6-10 and cautioned residents that temporary taste, odor, pressure, or discoloration differences could occur while lines normalize.

For Reidsville-area households and corridor businesses, this is a direct utilities operations update that affects day-to-day water use planning and specialty processes such as dialysis or aquarium systems.

Officials advised residents to run cold water taps briefly if discoloration appears and to contact Public Works for sustained issues.
